2008

The disrespect to drew doughty’s career. Honestly if anything he should go 1.

He’s fallen off a cliff in the past few years. That really digs into his career.

If its based on the whole career, Holtby and Doughty should both be higher

You have Karlsson above him. He’s fallen off a cliff too. Doughty’s still a fine player. He was the best hockey player in the world for a solid few year stretch. He goes first in this draft.

Seems like you have some major double standards. You shoot derek Stepan up 40 spots. You wanna talk about falling off a cliff?

I see what you mean, but in peak form I’d take Karlsson over Doughty. I’ll give you Stephan though.

In peak form there was just no comparison. Doughty was so far and away the better player. He had the best career of anyone in this draft.

The thing that I’d argue puts him higher than at least Karlsson is the cups.

He was just better at hockey. The cups don’t hurt the argument.

From 2012 to 2017 or so doughty was the best player on the planet. Karlsson was one dimensional

Basically my train of thought is to make this (roughly) based on current ability (stepan exception) but you’re thinking of it based off of past or peak ability. By your logic Cheechoo was the second best player in the world for one year, but no one thinks of him that way.

What?

You draft the player you think is going to have the best career.

Doughty has had the best career from this draft.

Over Stammers 60 goal season and two cups?

Stammer has one cup, and drew doughty was just most certainly the better player.

Sorry idk why I said two. You sound a lot like PinkWhitney NGL. There’s no way Doughty deserves 1oa. I’m sorry.

I don’t think there’s even a case for anyone else. Petro and Karlsson over doughty is laughable.
