Even if they are entering their twilight years, both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin are still considered very elite players, at least according to a recent NHL Network countdown.
Sidney Crosby came in at four while Evgeni Malkin ranked eighth on NHL Network’s countdown, Top 20 Centers Right Now.
Just like Kris Letang’s recent ranking, this list was created based on player performance from the 2019-20 season and the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs.
The full list is below:
These player rankings will culminate with NHL Network’s five-part series, Top 50 Players Right Now, beginning on Sunday, December 6 at 6:00 p.
