Whats the difference between early Nichushkin and Kakko
I wouldn't call Kakko a bust yet. Just underachieving for his draft position. There's still time for him to put everything together.

Thread:
Whats the difference between early Nichushkin and Kakko
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfkst1</b></div><div>Kakko is as good defensively, but that's where the similarities end. Nichushkin is a very good, borderline elite, mobility skater whereas Kakko is not and is arguably well below average. Neither are great shooters, but Nichushkin is much better at creating a high volume of shot rates and is a better puck handler and playmaker. Also has better size and is a better puck battler. Kakko isn't going to develop more size and speed at his age. He might refine some of his other offensive skills, but he's a bust so far. 3rd line wingers are a dime a dozen so if that is all he ends up being, that's a bad #2 overall pick.</div></div>
Sounds like you’re comparing Kakko to Nichushkin now rather than his early career where he had equally ugly stats lol
if all Kakko has to do is improve his skating and shooting volume, then he’ll easily become good over time. Players develop their speed all the time lol Laffy looks day and night different compared to last year

Yakapov's Numbers through 4 seasons:
2012–13 Edmonton Oilers NHL 48 17 14 31
2013–14 Edmonton Oilers NHL 63 11 13 24
2014–15 Edmonton Oilers NHL 81 14 19 33
2015–16 Edmonton Oilers NHL 60 8 15 23
Total Points through 4 seasons: 111
Compared to Kakkos:
2019–20 New York Rangers NHL 66 10 13 23
2020–21 New York Rangers NHL 48 9 8 17
2021–22 New York Rangers NHL 43 7 11 18
2022–23 New York Rangers NHL 82 18 22 40
Total Points through 4 seasons: 98
Edit: Lets not forget to mention he has 14 points this year... on pace for his worst season yet</div></div>
This kind of stat watching is part of what makes it so difficult to have a real conversation about Kakko’s contribution at the NHL level. You are comparing him to Yakupov on point production alone when Kakko’s freshman and sophomore seasons were cut short due to Covid, on top of that Yakupov had zero positional awareness and was always chasing the play, whereas Kakko has established himself as being very defensively responsible.
Yakupov’s rookie season was cut short due to the lockout, but he was able to remain conditioned by playing in the KHL.

When Drai asks out
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NYR1983</b></div><div>Not a knock on you guys. I just find it funny how 1st round picks go from untouchable status to dart throws and back to untouchable all the time on here. Some people just value them as sure thing NHL players in year 1. Those picks would take 3-5 years to bring any real contributions most likely.</div></div>
Top 5 picks typically become NHLers pretty damned fast, 5-12 takes a bit longer, but highly skilled. After about 15 or so, it's middle/bottom 6 upside, and likelihood of being an NHLer, ever, drops from there.
Our position is for a guy like Zegras, a clearly talented top 6 forward already, a collection of middle 6 pieces doesn't replace what he brings, nor does it interest us, because our prospect cupboards are brimming with those kinds of players already.
But yes, I do share your amusement when contenders proclaim their 1st round pick as off limits as if it will help them at all in the next 3-5 years.

THIS. Drury has no reason to give up Kakko for anything less than a massive overpayment. He doesn't cost much and he's a very serviceable NHLer that still has upside-- he's only 23 years old.

I’ve been against all trades of the younger kids, except Kakko who it depends what they get back
I’m still against giving Igor a massive contract that will kill their cap space

Whats the price? Realistically he is worth like a 3rd or 4th. Would NYR take that? No because his value is worth more to them. I don't think he would possibly be moved unless it was part of a package to upgrade somewhere else

Buyouts
I mean, why not just try to trade him at 50% retained if you’re willing to take on a $4m per year buyout? And then you don’t have to take the $2m hit in year 3 and 4. I could see a number of teams trading for Trouba at that price— and you’d likely get some good assets in return.

the deal they refused that might cost them the cup
Vatrano may be one of the most overrated players on this site by Rangers fans, and I have been saying for some time now that I hope the Rangers don’t acquire him. He had one playoff run where he benefitted immensely from his line mates, and one highly productive season this year where he’s given prime minutes in every situation on a bottom-feeder. I would much rather have Roslovic for a distant 4th than Vatrano for a 1st.

Mantha had the worst year of his career last year with Laviolette behind the bench, who consistently healthy scratched him or played him on the fourth line. Not going to say at some level it wasn't justified -- Mantha was playing incredibly poorly last season -- but very clear that he is not a fit personally or systems wise with a Laviolette coached team.
Dowd or Edmundson on the other hand though I could very easily see
