Wherever callahan slots in on this list Toews should be somewhere slightly ahead of him.

Ovechkin should still be in the top 5. No knock on the guys on the list, but Ovi is still one of, if not thee most dynamic player in the league. IMO

Holy crap, he played professional hockey (albeit the Swiss B-league) all the way up until 2010?

To those who talk about Ovie's shot total being too high, maybe you don't realize that getting shots on net is a talent in and of itself?

He deserves to be top 10, Pavelski and Toews do not. Carey Price is also borderline give historicals and his injury. He could be back after this year if he can show he is ok, but until then....I do not consider him a top ten player.

I would put Bergeron and/or Kopitar in before Toews. Tavares likely belongs there, but again, not after this past year.

Interesting list, but not accurate imo.

Also Ovie just got married to a model, I think he couldn't care less where he's placed.

6th in point scoring the past 3 years and 2nd in goal scoring to go along with a very strong (if not elite) two-way game. I don't see how he doesn't at least warrant serious consideration.

Russia is well-known for their abundance of vision-impaired models.

Ovechkin should definitely be top 10. Toews should not be top 10. I would honestly swap the two. Toews is 11 for me.
