"McDrai has accomplished nothing"; "Bergeron, Marchand insanely high": Hockey fans debate top 10 NHL duos since 2000 rankings 

Hockey fans are buzzing about B/R Open Ice's ranking of the NHL's 10 Best Dynamic Duos Since 2000.

The list aims at highlighting teammates who have helped elevate each other's play over the past two decades. It features several iconic pairs like Pittsburgh Penguins' Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin at No. 1, Chicago Blackhawks' Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane at No. 2 and Washington Capitals' Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Bäckström at No. 3.

Fans quickly took to social media to share their opinion on the rankings.

One fan said on X/Twitter:

"Bergeron and Marchand are insanely high, sedin twins and stamkos/kuch clears"

Another fan wrote:

"There’s actually so many changes I’d make but most importantly even as a Kings fan Toews-Kane should be first and Getzlaf-Perry should be top-5. McDrai also has accomplished nothing but okay."

Here are some more reactions from fans on X:

"MacKinnon and Rantanen not here while McDavid and Draisaitl are is absurd," one fan said.

"How in the hell do you put 2 losers in Thornton & Marleau who’ve never won shit over Bergeron/Marchand, Zetterberg/Datsyuk, Stamkos/Kucherov, Getzlaf/Perry when all of them have won cups while Thornton/Marleau choked every playoffs?" another fan wrote.

"Zetterberg and Datsyuk are too low. Recency bias has caused people to forget just how good they actually were (esp. Datsyuk)," one fan commented.

"If McDavid and Draisaitl win a cup, they‘ll move into 3rd Position. If they win three, they‘ll be on top," another fan said.

As the debate rages on social media, it's clear that NHL fans hold passionate opinions about what makes a duo truly dynamic.
