People act like Kane is more skilled, however, Toews is freaking special in that department. Toews even has a higher Penalty shot % than...well anybody right? He can simply spot the puck and might have the most accurate shot.
His deception on the look away goal the other day in game 7, the second one, shows of his penalty shot skill. He is much more deceptive and shifty than his personalty distracts from. Kane can flat out skate. He has the best developed sticked skills maybe in league history. I heard him compared to Jordan, but Kane is more Pistol Pete, or Steph Curry. He has done all in his power to be the best he can be, but Toews is just naturally going to be better at certain things.
Toews penalty % and the way he can attack when he wants....I think if anything he is underrated by even being thrown into these conversations.
Fact is he was the best player for team Canada at times, yet Canada still wins world champs without Keith/Toews. Toews is one of the top 3 players in the league.
kane is the most unique player in the league, best dribbling skill in league history maybe. I don't see a lot of Kane deflections out of the air, leading me to believe he is either skating the perimeter or maybe he just wasn't born with that skill being the "very best in the league." You can't be best at every facet of hockey. Kane is best at 1 or 2 and is so good at them you start talking GOAT in certain areas.
