Quoting: oliver_wahlstrom
well then every single oilers fan is stupid. strome is significantly better both production and projectile wise
There’s no need to call people names. Also, that doesn’t make us stupid for liking Yamamoto over Strome. That’s like calling someone stupid because they like the color red, and not blue. Both make no sense! You can’t say someone is stupid for having an opinion, and liking things.
Now, about Yamamoto, and Strome. Yes Strome has more points, but in my opinion, he’s not near as good defensively, we don’t know if he will click with our players, who knows how much he will sign for, as I think Yamamoto will sign for a cheaper contract than Strome. Yamamoto tries harder all around the ice. When it comes from the defensive zone, to the offensive zone. He constantly gets pushed around, but gets back up and battles. Yamamoto can play with both McDavid, and Draisaitl and be consistent even if he is not getting points. He tries every night to gather points, and keep the goals out of our net. Also, we are tight against the cap.. we have to keep our cheaper players. If you think Strome is better, why are you trading him for a worse player, and late picks?
