<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rob32sjsharks</b></div><div>Debrincat was a total Fleecing of Chicago, your not getting that good of a deal. that said this isn’t far off but you gotta add for us to take bailey as he would be essentially worthless to the sharks
remember Meier is only 26 is 4” and 40lbs bigger and on a legit team with 2 scoring lines should be a 40G 90p potential.
remember he scored 35 and was a PPG on a team with literally 3 top 6 guys and one was couture.

he will be closer to if not 9 mil a year.</div></div>

Fiala just got 19 in a worse draft and faber. The way i broke down this trade was for the most part holmstrom to move bailey and 2 1sts and bolduc for meier which considering the other trades that have happened recently for PPG wingers is pretty solid.
As for the contract who knows. I wouldnt give him 8×9 and i dont think he gets that unless he puts up another season of 40g 90p which i dont think he does. Tage thompson just got 7×7 and hes a C. Robert thomas and jordan kyrou just got 8×8.125. Fiala got 8×&lt;8 so i dont think its crazy to give him 8 years 64-65m

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>XGAR only has to do with his own finishing talent. In terms of driving offense, he’s below league average. He is not good in transition nor does he pass well. He needs his linemates to drive the play. That’s why you can’t look at one chart and come to the conclusion on a player.

You just proved you don’t understand the own chart you posted. His competition (quality of competition) is at 47% meaning Pageau does not often face top lines. 53% of NHL forwards face tougher competition than Pageau.</div></div>

Talk about not understanding charts. Quality of competition and quality of teammates is based solely on TOI. It does not calculate actual skill at all.
As for the Jfresh player card, he doesnt use single stats like xGAR. His 5v5 offense number is based solely on on ice expected goals for which tabulates his even strength offensive war.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>I do not use jfresh, Evolving hockey is much better at isolating a player from his teammates. My point stands, he's a bottom 6 player - an average 3C. He gets a lot of ice time with the isles top players.

Seems like even evolving hockey cant make up their mind about JGP. But its very interesting bc <a href="/users/isles5513" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@isles5513</a> does have a point. Youre an extremely irrational person who does worship in a way analytical descriptions and cant put your own thoughts on something.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>Of course Raty won’t make the team, the isles do not care about winning

That’s not likely, Pageau is an extremely mediocre bottom 6 player during the regular season. Ratys D+1 was identical to Anton Lundell who had a 2nd line impact in a 3rd line role last season</div></div>

Its amazing how you believe automatically that raty who hasnt proved a damn thing yet will for sure be good but JGP who has proven many times to be good you somehow think isnt. The delusion that follows top prospects is insane. I think raty can become a high end 2C but i dont think im delusional about the development path to get there.

Thread: My top 10 at every position
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cMac73</b></div><div>I’d put Kaprizov number 1 but I think you can argue everyone that’s ahead of him to be ahead of him besides DeBrincat. Gaudreau and Huberdeau are both 110+ point guys at least last year, Marchand is an amazing overall player near 100 points when fully healthy, Ovechkin is still a 50 goal scorer playing with lesser players, but DeBrincat for sure belongs behind Kaprizov. Yes he seems like a certified 40 goal scorer now but he played with Kane and yet his numbers aren’t even that close to Kaprizov. So I guess it’s reasonable to have Kaprizov behind most of those guys, though I don’t agree, but he definitely belongs ahead of DeBrincat</div></div>

If youre going to mention teammates then gaudreau had tkachuk and huberdeau had barkov and marchand had both bergy and pasta. Should they be behind kaprizov bc of that? No they shouldnt. Cats played 5 seasons and has hit 40+ goals in 2 of them already not to mention a 3rd (20-21) whoch was a shortened season where he had 32 goals in 52 games which is on pace for over 50. (Also i know this shouldnt really count but in roughly 375 games hes missed just 4 and those were bc of covid contacts not injury. At his size playing just under 400 games without missing 1 due to injury is really good).
