One overrated player per team

Team: 2020-21 Custom Team
Initial Creation Date: Oct. 28, 2020
Published: Oct. 28, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
On Rakell: everyone seems to think he's an elite or close to that level scorer but in fact he's a 2nd liner
On Kessel: his role is a 2nd line one
On Kase: he just sucks, and is actually a great proof of why analytics don't tell the full story
On Hall: he's not a 80 pts player, he's a 70 pts player
On Gaudreau: he can't carry a team IMO, not when it matters anyway. Tkachuk should be the main guy in CGY, not Gaudreau
On Trockeck: it's time to stop thinking about him as an excellent 2C and we need to start seeing the truth: he's just an average 2C
On Kubalik: he's not the vest invention since sliced bread ok? Very good player yes but he still plays with guys who can drive plays in an elite way, Toews and Kane
On Makar: look, I love the guy, he really is an elite PP quarterback, but he needs to improve his defense before we start including him in top 10 d-men rankings
On Korpisalo: he's great but really his number have to be boosted by CLB's defensive system
On Seguin: he isn't exactly close to making Team Canada IMO, not even sure if he's a top 20 center in the league
On Mantha: he isn't worth the world ok?
On Draisaitl: one of the worst defensive players in the league, he shouldn't have won the Hart and isn't a top 15 centers when it comes to the overall game
On Barkov: he's great but isn't even the best on his team
I couldn't find anyone for LA
On DUmba: he isn't anything more than number 3 d-man
On Tatar: he isn't a top liner, I think his playoff performance showed us that he's just an average 2nd liner
On Duchene: nuff said
I couldn't come up with anyone for NJ, since PK isn't overrated anymore, everyone knows he's a bottom pairing d-man (I'd even argue he's not NHL caliber but that's just me)
On Varlamov: he's a good goalie for sure, but the defensive structure in NYI helps him a lot
On NYR: Kreider could be overrated in 2 years but not now. You could make a case for ADA too.
On Murray: he's not a true starter
On Giroux: dude's not consistent
On DUmoulin: he's very good but not an elite defensive d-man, as I've sen some PIT fans call him. IMO Marino torches him
I honestly don't know who to pick for SJ
On Krug: he's not a very good player, he's only a very good PP player
On Kucherov: I think people overrate him because they see him as TB's best F, when their best F is Point
On Marner: until he shows he can play with the fire he had in the 2018-19 season on a consistent basis he's overrated. Sorry
on Boeser: IMO the presence of EP/Horvat helps him more than we'd like to admit
On Pacioretty: just a terrible playoff performer. He's not a 1st liner when playoff time comes
On Carlson: he shouldn't have been nominated for the Norris. Terrible at defense. Nuff said
On Connor: IMO he's worse than Scheifele and Ehlers who, IMO, play much better 200 foot game than he does

As a Jets fan, I'm just going to speak to Kyle Connor. I have to disagree with the sense that he's overrated. I agree with your statement that Scheifele and Ehlers play a much better 200 foot game, but I don't think that makes Connor overrated. He has 3 back to back to back 30+ goal seasons and would have reached 40+ this year had it not been cut short (38 goals). I think he deserves much of his praise although I agree he needs to improve his defensive game,

Holl isn’t overrated. People act like he’s a 3rd pairing guy.

why does Leons defensive game matter when he puts up 50 goals and over 100 points, and the most overrated leaf is Nylander, but 100% agree with Kucherov most overrated player in the league 75-85 guy who plays on a crazy good team. and leon not being a 15 centre what are you talking about he is a top 5 player in the league

Agreed here. How can you say a guy who led the league by more than 10 points, isnt top 15 at his position?

More so a 1st line guy. He scored 30x60 and has good analytics. Better defensively this year.

I think the way the media talks about Hall yes he's overrated, he isn't a superstar. He is however a very elite player.

I mean, a case could be made for 75% of these guys that they're not actually overrated, but that seems a bit time consuming...

Instead, I love how you ripped apart 27 guys, and when you got to the Rangers, you were like "Meh, Kreider and ADA *might* be overrated in a couple of years, but we gooooood"
