Thread: 2017 Re Draft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DH28Hockey</b></div><div>Oh boy, where to begin...

1) Since the 2015 draft, there have been less than 15 players that have played as a full time center in the NHL in either of their first 2 seasons after being drafted, let alone both. Playing in 2 full NHL seasons at the center position before your 21st birthday is a massive accomplishment in itself

2) You have guys like Chytil, Mittelstadt and Andersson above him who have also played in the NHL over the past 2 years and have nowhere near the same level of success

3) Even just watching the kid, he has an absolute ton of talent. He hasn’t produced at anywhere near the level expected out of the gate, but watching him play he clearly shows flashes of 1C hockey IQ and skill.

I agree he hasn’t lived up to 2nd overall, I think Heiskanen, Makar, and Pettersson all deserve to be above him in a redraft as of right now. But putting him down to 18th overall behind a ton of guys that have shown nowhere near the success of Patrick seems like a hot take for the sake of being a hot take</div></div>

I totally get it man it's your opinion everyone has different. I'm not calling him bad it's justI think what really ruined his momentum was Hextall calling him up WAY too early
