Gaudreau is a elite player on a cheap contract. Boston will have to include a couple of pick and A top forward prospect to be consider serious.

That trade makes it a Marchand for Meier+Ferraro+2021 2nd rounder trade seem fair. Just feel like elite pieces must be added

Not at all, debrusk and Meier are equal. But Urho is a FARRRRR better prospect than Ferraro. So please look into it before commenting. Also Marchy is much more valuable than Johnny hockey so yeah not even close

Timo Meier>DeBrusk in terms of playmaking and presence on the ice, Urho>Ferraro, a san Jose early 2nd >Boston late 2nd. Also, Marchand>>Gaudreay but you're getting Marchand at ages 32-36 while Gaudreau is at age 26-29. Pasta and Bergeron are more to Boston atm but Gaudreau is everything for Calgary. That trade is off and so is the Marchand one i stated

Timo Meier is an elite player.
Jake DeBrusk is a top 6 forward.

Elite players might be a little much though but he is clearly a top line player. I wouldn’t consider him elite since he is not In the same category that real elite players. ( Marner, Kucherov, Kane, Pastrnak, Wheeler, Rantanen, Stone)are consider elite and Meier is not there yet.
But i agree with you that he is by far better then Debrusk.

I guess elite pans to saying player that is very skilled but the team won't fall into a hole if they lose him. McDavid is generational, Patrick Kane is franchise/generational, Barkov is Franchise, Wheeler is elite/franchise and Pastrnak is elite

Meier = 0.29G per gm and 0.6Pts / gm. Playoffs 1GWG
DeBrusk = 0.31G per gm and 0.6Pts / gm. Playoffs 2GWG w/ one being a series clincher...

By definition Elite mean the best and he is just not in that category yet. A generational or a franchise players are elite by definition since they are the best. Meier is still young and have some potential to reach but to me you can’t say he is part of the elite group without being at least a top 5 players at your position. Amybe in 2 or 3 year he will be right there but not quite yet.

Hold up points doesn't mean everything when comparing players. Bergeron is a defensive center so comparing his offensive production will be a joke.
Take this:
Phil Kessel = 0.81Pts / gm and 0.35G per gm.
Patrice Bergeron = 0.798 Pts / gm and 0.32G per gm.

So Kessel is better than Bergeron

Hey, you called him ELITE - not me. Take off the rosey glasses and save the elite for McDavid, Crosby, Ovi yada yada...

First Meier have played half of a season at 19 year old when Debrusk haven’t even touched the ice.
The past three season Meier have had a 0.67 ppg
And in the past 2 season 0.78 ppg
Debrusk have a 0.6 ppg past 3 season and the past 2 he is at 0.58ppg.

Great info, I didn’t realize that they were that close. I think DeBrusk takes abuse because he isn’t Barzal or Kyle Connor who Boston passed on.

Yeah it's all good.
Of the 2015, class he's one of the ONLY ones w/ playoff GWG's - clutch is the best way to describe JD.

I see DeBrusk is a very important player to you and the team which makes sense, but Meier is also very important to San Jose when they picked him over Rantanen and Barzal. He has been doing everything right for the team and looks to be a 30 goal consistent scorer.

Then why you are the one who desperately need to justify that Debrusk is not a pieces of shat?

Kind of a dick thing to say no? For someone that doesn't like people being mean to others, you don't seem to practice what you preach.

Now lets talk DeBrusk/Meier. Last 3 years, 5v5 at a per 60 looks because its probably the most accurate way to measure players

Goals/60
TM: 1.06
JD: 1.01

Assist/60
TM: 1.12
JD: 0.94

iSCF/60
TM: 12.01
JD: 8.13

iHDCF/60
TM: 5.59
JD: 3.67

Rebounds Created/60
TM: 1.33
JD: 0.85

Takeaway/60
TM:2.24
JD: 2.12

Hit/60
TM: 6.59
JD: 3.32

Shot Block/60
TM: 2.15
JD: 1.46

Meier per 60 is the better goals scorer, setup man, generates more scoring chances and high danger scoring chances. He also generates more rebounds while having slightly better takeaway numbers, but doubling Jake in the Hit/60 department and shot blocking department. They are not equal, Meier (while not elite) is better than DeBrusk.
