When it's all said and done, which of these three do you think will be considered greatest?
McDavid, then Crosby, then Bedard
Why is Bedard even on this list?
@@Borodin410I mean it’s pretty early to say that for sure but the whole point of the question is to try and predict. Maybe he gets injured a bunch and his career is cut short, maybe he goes on to throw up 50-60 goal seasons for the next 15 years 🤷🏻♂️
Mackinnon
mcdavo no contest tbh
crosby scoring in every ways possible, dangles one-timers crazy deflections he's still got it all
I read no lies here
3 generations shining in one season, that’s something we don’t see a lot! We’re lucky to be witnessing this. 🎉
McDavid isn't doing anything this year, 12 goals 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Truth, for him like we're used to. But he could heat it up and threaten. He's only 13 pts below Kucherov with 4 games in hand. Don't write off McHockey just yet. Lots of hockey ahead.@@rogerskitt1542
Troll or stupid? Which one is it?@@rogerskitt1542
are you dense? He had a rough start as did every oilers player, but now he has been unreal once again. Making plays every game. McDavid is the best player skill wise in the league and is 60% of the reason why they have won like crazy recently. @@rogerskitt1542
@@rogerskitt1542 Haha you’re funny
Bedard’s sensational and obviously McDavid is my favourite but I’m most impressed by Crosby, still leading by example. A living legend. Would love to see McKinnon and Kucherov in the next reels.
Crosby is goat for sure
Sidney Crosby is incredible. Has played an incredible 200ft game his entire career and is still on pace for 40+ goals in his late 30s.
He hasn't played a 200 foot game his entire career lmao. He was terrible defensively when he was in his first few seasons
as is like 90% of rookies.@@dungeree7292
No way Bedzy pulled off a Michigan in his rookie year. This kid is something special
He did.
Not that special, kids have been doing it for years now
agreed. bedards a talent but hes still got some work to do to podium with mcdavid and sid
It wasn’t a Michigan. Go watch the Michigan and then rewatch Bedard, and Zegras actually also did the same move to score the same night…but it’s different than the lacrosse style Michigan goal
That was super impressive. But "Michigan?" That goal is called an Armstrong, not Michigan.
Man Crosby is so good. I still remember reading about him in a 2004 German hockey magazine and how he's expected to be the next great one. He actually lived up to it. What a player
If you look at Crosby's style, form, gate and timing he has to be the most gifted player. He master's the basics and his vision is unlike any other player in the league. You can tell this guy trains like a Kobe Bryant.
All generational players. All so different
Mcdavid is more talented. Crosby still great tho
@@matous2542 we will see the type of player bedard is but comparing rookie campaigns they were near similar PPG and bedard has done that on a team full of bums
almost 20 years of nhl experience will do that to a guy that was already unbelievable when he was a rookie lol.
It is hilarious to me that Bedard and McDavid have all these clips of just insane flashy goals while Crosby has all these effortless plays where he touches the puck for a matter of seconds. It really says a lot about what kind of players they are.
Sid had some flash when he was younger.. he learned that being flashy gets you targeted so he plays a respectable game
It's nuts how good Sid still is. Equally impressive when comparing to the falloff Ovi has had this year, even though the two have always been wildly different players. I know loads of people hate Crosby, for whatever reason, but the guy is one of the greatest ever for sure. It's a shame the Pens aren't doing so well again this season.
Gotta remember Ovechkin is 2 years older than Crosby. Ovi scored 53 goals at 36.
Incredible video. Collectively, I don't think there has ever been a more skillfull NHL in history.
Facts
Crosby is goat 🐐…there is no doubt
Let's be honest here, McDavid is just Filthy offensively with speed to burn, Bedard is already a Star in the league with "Generational Talent" possibilities... But as much as it pains me to admit, Crosby's overall game is still a step above the rest. The guy's like 37 yrs old and still top 5 in Goals?!? Lol His game IQ is second to none but what really seperates Crosby from the others is his Playoff Elevation. And not merely putting the puck in the net. It's his excellent faceoff skills at the most crucial point in big games, his insane ability to protect the puck in the corners and create scoring chances outta nothing, his defensive reliabilities at both ends of the ice..... and probably the least known trait of #87, his unmatched work ethic. Both on and off the ice. Would've loved to see if he could've added another CUP or two to his ridiculous resume had he not missed nearly 2 entire seasons during his Prime years?🤔 Maybe, maybe not, but back when Sid was young and on top of his game, I wouldn't bet against him. The guy simply knows how to WIN. Great video mate... Maybe you could do another with McKinnon and Matthews too..??
McDavid is so smooth...looks like he can just score at will. Goalies have no chance on his breakaways.
Bedard will be better
@@SnapshotMC94 Bedard will be a bust, watch. Chicago won't even get to the playoffs. He's being wasted on them.
@@koshka02 lol he’s a PPG on the worst team in hockey lol ya he’s totally gonna be a bust
@@SnapshotMC94 bedard will never be as big strong or fast as mcdavid . that’s a joke if u think he will be better
@@gino11731 lol being fast or strong don’t mean a thing if you really know hockey. Gretzky wasn’t the strongest or fastest
McDavid always has so many options, defenders and goalies keep guessing and 99% of time McDavid chooses the right option. It's simply unreal to watch, his skill is unmatched. Hats off to Crosby aswell for finding another gear this season at the age of 36. Let's not forget McKinnon who is showing his real potential this season, closest to McDavid.
I'm so lucky to have been born in an era where I get to witness all three of these generational talents play at the same time. Like, this has got to be a once in a lifetime experience.
That McDavid goal on mcflurry was something else... 😮
Yeah, im an Oilers fan.. Bedard is insane kid, atleast Blackhawks does not finnish last this year. But the legend is only one there, and it is a Crosby.
blackhawks will finish last this year or damn near last
@@chrisculver8848 oh ya they're gonna be last. Hoping for that oilers luck for back to back 1st overalls
I love how they all have different styles but make fun to watch.
Awesome video with Conor Crosby, & Bedard with their "Highlight Goals" Bedard is doing amazing leading all Rookies in goals as well points like we knew he would.
Awesome video man starring the trio McDavid, Crosby, & Bedard side by side for some pretty goals here evidently.. Bedard is leading all Rookies with most goals & points like everyone predicted he would be a generational phenome player unequivocally.. Not trying to be rude or anything just a suggestion, I would love to see Matthews in one of these videos (u might already have one?) considering he's a great candidate for the 2023/24 Rocket award with his league leading 28 G's.. Brock Boeser is killing it this year with second place and 24gs the last time I checked in the NHL.. Since Matthews first debut game in his 2016/17 till now has scored more goals vs any other player in the NHL including Overy, Pasternak, Drisaitle, McDavid, and Kutchy.. In fact if u look simultaneously at Matthews & Ovey's goal totals in their first 8 completed years in the NHL side by side if Matthews scores 60 goals this 2023/24 which is his first 8 completed years he will have more goal totals vs Ovey's irrefutablely.. This shines some unequivocal light under the parentheses of the chance "Matthews" can also beat Gretzky's 1 out of his 60 NHL records for again the most goal totals in the history of the NHL's regular seasons.. Just think about that for one second in terms of Ovey beating Gretzky's most goals in the regular season being 894 and Ovey's just 66gs behind chasing Gretzky's record with 828gs thus far and Matthews is irrefutable too on pace for smashing Gretzky's record when we look again at both Matthews & Ovey's first completed 8 years in the NHL side by side while Matthews right now is on pace to score 71 G's this season with again his 28gs in his only 30 games played.. If Matthews skims up this Rocket it will be his third and should be his fourth.. Remember the 2020/21 NHL Covid shut down in March/April? In this time frame Bettman shut down the league with teams still having 15 to 17 games left when again Bettman shut down the 2020/21season because of Covid the 3 headed goal dragon NHL goal leaders where Matthews, Ovey, & Pasternak going back and forth from first, second, and third place only behind each other by one or two goals throughout the season.. When Bettman pulled the plug Matthews had 47gs while Pasternak & Ovey had 48gs who both of them received the Rocket while Matthews missed it by one damn goal for a three way tie in achieving this wonderful accolade for most goals in the whole league.. My point here is if the league didn't shut down in that particular time with again 15/17 games left it could have been a different story ultimately.. It would have been 3 Rockets for Matthews now and if he wins the Rocket this year it would be his fourth in eight years played which I think he will win this season's Rocket with a commanding lead of 28 G's already in his first 30 games played.. Trust.. Oh as long as he stays healthy of course.. S.S.L Ok I'm done now and obviously came to the conclusion that this comment is starting to become a book.. I'm a reader type book guy so it's nothing to me but I do realize some people don't like longgated comments and I understand again S.S.L.
In my eyes they are all NHL greats. Off course right now Sidney Crosby is the greatest for three Stanley cups winner with two Olympic Gold Medals, one Junior world and a World Championship. McDavid and Bedard will get their Stanley cup eventually. Please god help Bedard get out of this atrocious Blackhawks team. It would be dream to see all three play for team Canada in the world championship!
that one crazy wrist flicker shot bedard made is to me just stupid good. looked like a glitch
10:36
The 3 best hockey players.Great Video sid still #1.
Just how lucky are we to get to watch such an amazing crop of hockey players across the whole league?? Unbelievable man
All having great seasons
3:35 best one of the year
They are all so amazing to watch. This sport is beyond the best sport. Its just Hockey
I'm jealous of Bedard with Chicago. They've got a real gem in this kid.
@@toke7342 That's a little harsh.
@@johnbrowne2170 too much bad has happened with that team unfortunately
Another seeing eye goal for Crosby, right through the D's legs. Not a 'Golden Goal' but nice. If the Kid can see daylight the puck will follow. He's always a treat to watch. 😎
Mcdavid is unreal ,bedard is unreal crosby is unreal these guys are so good .
For me, Crosby is a top 5 player all-time. Gretzky Lemieux Orr Howe Crosby
Bedard has a lightning-quick release. And he does it when the goalie thinks Bedard's going to do something else or before he has time to react. All three are pretty impressive, Crosby and McDavid have been for quite awhile now. It'll be interesting to see if Bedard can keep up in the coming years.
I like Bedard, he's going to be an amazing player. Infact he's already pretty damn good.. but he doesnt belong on a highlight reel with the other 2. Not yet.
The purpose of this vid is to show the best in 3 different generations.
These three are the only NHL Superstars on my list for 2024!!!! Crosby, McDavid and Bedard!!!
Super Excited for this season, bedard's been on fire!
Sid for Hart
Past, present and future
The universal BEST sport....❤I m LOVE It...
Shame guys like MacKinnon, Kucherov and Pavelski don’t get much attention.
Idk, I think MacKinnon and Kucherov are getting a fair bit of shine this season. They are the top 2 points scorers this season afterall.
McDAvid is at a different level than Bedard. Bedard gets a lot of goals on trick shots, picking up loose pucks. McDavid goes end to end and beats everyone, and then beats the goalie head on. Chicago better get some muscle to protect Bedard before someone hurts him, McDavid can clearly take care of himself and dish it out if he needs to , and if anyone can catch him, which isn't often.
Lol nah bro. Bedards IQ is better than Mcdavids. Mcdavid can beat everyone with speed and fast hands. Bedards hockey IQ is unmatched with an absolute piss missile snapper
how is crosby still so good
Hard work, a good diet, and insane genes I guess
I find it hard to believe that anyone has been or will be as good as McDavid. All 3 of these guys are special but McDavid is just unreal.
Bedard will become an absolute monster when he isn’t on a team full of AHL players. Look at Jonathan huberdeau. 100 points season in Florida then went to Calgary with absolutely no one to play with and his point totals have disappeared. Bedard is a point per game on the worst team in the NHL. He isn’t McDavid fast but gretzky wasn’t either 😜 he will become better than Mcdavid. Bedards IQ, edges, and his SHOT.
The release the Bedard has is absolutely insane
To me Crosby did it all👐 next time you should make one for every 2026 Canadian roster. It'd be cool!
How can any goalie feel like he's letting his team down when getting scored on by any of these 3 amazing players? I really enjoy watching all of them play!
I love Vegas announcers they sound excited about the visiting teams goal
Sidney Crosby like cognac - with years only better. From Russia - with respect.👏👏👏👍
When Wayne G sat down with Conner for interview about playing in Edmonton Wayne said whatching Conner come up at 16 drafted from same area he said he never saw a player who had the speed and how fast he explodes with it and with his hands just as fast he told Conner hill defiantly win a cup sometime in career he is still young and if he stays healthy the sky is the limit he had a slow start but eventually went from 26th in scoring race to 5 in a week and a half he is the best player right now his speed and hands are a joy to watch but it would be nice to see Crosby Badard Conner Drisittle maybe Cain stamkos there such a good pool of Canadian players it would be one of best to go to Olympics for sure can't see how they wouldn't come out with gold medal I think they have to do it this time just for Hockey it's what people want to see
We need some Olympics with those 3 on Team Canada. It would be insane!
11:35 - Nobody else in NHL can score goals like that
I love hockey these days
W idea W clips
High sticks ? This is like a badminton game
Counting down the days until Bedard comes back
you forgot about David Pastrňák. At the moment, there is only one hockey player better than him. That hockey player is Sidney Crosby. The others playfully put it in their pockets
We have a great coach for edmonton . calgary merry christmas 😅🎉❤😊
Fleury tried to take McDavid's feet out the same away he did to Bedard... Didn't turn out quite the same!
Don’t ask to see a Bobrovsky highlight reel
Mcdavid bedard crosby and the teams mentioned the oilers philedelphia andall teams merry christmas and we wish all from vancouver lets hope oilers lord stanly 🎉cup and lets prey for a good year.🎉😊❤.
All oilers are sesational and lets go for stanley.sthey are great mcdavid drisatl and kane .😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉.
Olympics needs NHL Hockey, maybe in Vancouver again since Bedard is from North Van; put these 3 on a line together
McDavid the best.
how is the guy on defense at 0:56 in the nhl
Missed that michy for Bedsy
Bedard's release against Edmonton was disgusting.
All great players but I hope Bedard is able to lead a team like Crosby has
Dont cry at me but McDavid is King. The rest are just participating.
Crosby and his 3 rings laughing all the way to the bank while McPrincess wins meaningless regular season trophies no one gives a damn about. Behold your overrated cupless Queen Connie McRegularSeason 🤣😂😂💙🧡🛢️🤡🤡🤡🤡
Can’t wait to see McTrash get inducted into cupless legends row and join the likes of jumbo Joe, Lindros, Iginla, Pavel Bure and marcel dion. All of which were good enough to win a cup but never did🤣😂🤣💙🧡🛢️🤡🤡🤡🤡
You can always spot the dumb person when they start using team trophies to compare individuals. McDavid is better at hockey, Crosby is luckier with who drafted him, that is the reality. I guess Toews is better than McDavid too? 3 rings!!@@KOODA86
I was wondering when you'd show up to diss McDavid @@KOODA86
@@KOODA86go look at crosbys teammates during his cups lol mcdavid is by far more skilled
Then there's the work of art by Foligno to Bedard. That work and that pass is like fine art, you want to look at it over and over. 😎
I gotta say bedard remind me a lot of Kaprizov
Those 3 NHL players are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute 🥰!
Bedards stick was above his shoulders
nah it was low enough. plus the puck was never above which is what counts regardless
mcdavid is by far the most skilled player ever to play in the league
That is just an absurd claim.
@@MandatoryFruit not the most dominant but skill wise I believe so.
I think he's the most skilled human to put on skates. That being said I'd draft crosby over him if it was the same year
All he does but still at the bottom feed bedard will need a lot of help next season another top 3 player will do to.
McDavid is by far the best of the three. He is on his own level
connor bedard is my favorite
It makes no sense , but a line of Crosby, McDavid and Bedard for team Canada.
all of them are centers so not likely
The past, present and future.
This video came out a bit too early
We didn’t bank on a Michigan happening the night before release 😂
How can you not include Auston Mathews.?
Cuz he’s not generational
cause he's worse than McDavid
hes not necessarily generational thats why
Sorry ovi you didn’t make the cut 😂😂😂
he doesnt care cause he has many other times and hes accomplished way more you ever could
@@ethanparker7900 wtf are you talking about bud 😂😂
figure it out you have the internet look at all the highlight reels and videos ovi is in @@Mulppy
The Girl's face At 3:10-3:13
Good to see a video celebrating true talent. Thankfully garbage-goal Matthews is not included in this class of player.
hey guys i dont know hockey well. Is Crosby considered the goat of hockey?
Put on a line at olympics
All these superheroes have a C in their name ..also an A too
Mcdavid is the best
Mcjesus just plays at another level. Guy has 200 IQ with a mind that can execute 10x faster than other players. So fun to watch. He's a real problem.
Crosby is consistent and efficient but the other two are game breakers. Imagine how many cups McDavid would have if he had a Letang, a prime Matt Murray and Fleury??
Imagine bedards point totals if his best teammates weren’t foligno and kurashev lol
Oilers had three 100 point players last season. I’d say that’s a pretty good team lol
Crosby not a game breaker? Lmao good one. Was hands down the best player in the league in his prime. 7th all time in points per game playing through one of the lowest scoring eras ever.
Too bad you left out all the times Austin Matthews undressed goalies this season.
Video would be too long 😉 Matthews is scoring at will right now
connor bedard
Meanwhile not one of them is in a playoff spot lol.
how on earth would Bedard be in a playoff spot with THAT blackhawks team ?!?!?!?
i play hockey
Bedard -22
maybe connor mcdavid
3 cups between these players lol
Shame no MacKinnon, he should be included.
Muffin...
poor bobrovski
As Mackinnon has a 4 point night 18 game point streak ah dont worry about Colorado they trash... broke as media
that mcdavid spin goal is so overrated... guess it looks sick to new hockey fans
Actually, the fact that he didn't even a miss a beat and instantly resumed the scoring chance despite never expecting the puck to be there just shows how fast he processes the game. His IQ is off the charts.
@@AdamMCrawfordThat play was pure luck. He was trying to draw a penalty with the excess spinning and got a lucky break. He even admitted that in the post game. Like said above. It’s flashy, but severely overrated because it involved spinning.
It was not pure luck... No one else in the league seamlessly scores on that play. It's his hockey IQ that made that play impressive, not the spin and puck being there.@@chrisallardfilms9001
Why's Ovechkin missing from this?
cause he's washed
Cuz hes a Putin loving one-trick pony who fell off hard this year
bot 🤡@@BotDeestroyer
How was bedards goal legal his stick was above his shoulders
The Puck wasn’t you casual lol
@@SnapshotMC94 look at it again his stick was above his shoulders it was even higher that the net. Smuck
@@paulstensland3800 learn the rules then come back lol
@@SnapshotMC94 I know the rules skippy
@@paulstensland3800 I’m sure the play would have been challenged if that were the case lol come back when you have a valid argument
