The best "tactical' general was Paul Hausser, in particular, his exploits in leading the II SS Panzer Corps during the 3rd Battle of Kharkov. He beat a Soviet force 7 times his size. The result was the stablization of the front after the debacle at Stalingrad.
There were other great generals, including Patton, Guderian, Rommel, Manstein and Kurt "Panzer" Meyer, but Hausser was above them all in a losing cause.

Honorable mention are Eisenhower, Zhukov, and Yamamoto (do admirals count?). Montgomery was over-rated.
