Youre kidding me. A middle 6 guy?
1. He was on pace for 50 points this year
2. He is above average in every category, is an elite skater, and is really smart. Hes also very young.
3. Its not really fair to compare points when a guy is playing for trotz. I mean barzy averages 60-65 points a season when hes a ppg player with any other coach (besides torts). Point being beauvillier is a 60 point player on a team where hes allowed to take a few chances and that focuses a little on offense.

lol you're really using corsi and point share% - that doesn't mean anything. Beauvillier brings more value to the isles as he has a higher WAR (wins above replacement) and SPAR (standing points above replacement). Beauvillier brings more value to his team, you're using the worst advanced metrics to try to prove a point.
Gallagher is valuable for MTL and a more prolific goal scorer

Nope
Is he an All Star ?
Nope
Does he posses any Awards from the NHL?

Its doesnt make him Elite because he can put up Goals and points in Clutch moments.
It makes him a REALLY Important middle 6 forward for every coach he's every had here
