The Next One is a nickname that has belonged to the following ice hockey players: * Eric Lindros * Sidney Crosby * John Tavares〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The Next 'Next One?' )〕 * Connor McDavid * Auston Matthews〔http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/13481950/nhl-auston-matthews-embarking-grand-hockey-experiment〕 The name is a play on Wayne Gretzky's nickname, "The Great One". Each of the players listed has been or is currently billed as the next Wayne Gretzky. Phil Kessel was considered to be on the list during his junior career, but his performance dropped in 2006 and he was taken off the list. To date, no player given the moniker has broken a National Hockey League record set by Gretzky. Mario Lemieux, "The Magnificent One", was the closest to breaking several of Gretzky's records, but he was never called "The Next One" by the media, because he was Gretzky's contemporary for most of his NHL career. The name continues to be used to highlight the achievements of young players still in their teenage years, who outcompete players older than them in minor league or international junior play as Gretzky did. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Next One」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
