Career wise there's a number of players I'd put ahead of him, but I'll reserve opinion on where he stands on the all time list until after he's done playing. He's 28, so probably has a few of years to go yet.

Also let's not forget he was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as top playoff performer last year. In 96 career playoff games he has 150 pts.
I never thought you meant all time. The greatest one is the Great One.

He did indeed have a good playoff last year and this one. That is why his finals disappointed me. I don't believe the "best" of any era should have 6 bad skates in a row. He's gotta show up at least once. I expect the best to say "enough is enough" & will himself to dominance.
