Hmm...interesting topic of discussion!
You're right,
Gil-galad. Fingolfin could have undergone some kind of preparation first before battling with Morgoth. After all, as we have seen in their fight, he was not completely out of his league, and surely more preparation wold have enabled him to defeat Morgoth. As a matter of fact, he has hewn Morgoth's flesh so many times, and that gave him and his house the right to earn the Dark Lord's wrath. However, it was the moment's adrenaline rush that gave him all the strength and courage he would have needed...more than he could ever muster. I believe that had the battle been delayed, Fingolfin would have been more helpless.
As for the thread's question: I'll go for Ereinion, too.

And Beren and Luthien. Oh, and Huan. Best non-biped character of all!
