Thread: Redraft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>I'm not denying he had a great season because he did, that's why I said he moves up to the first round in a redraft. However saying he is top 10 with almost zero NHL experience is just pure homerism.

As for your comparisons, sure he has the edge on Tomasino (should be noted Tomasino is also a center so that raises his value) but the WHL is a lower scoring league than the OHL and the NCAA is significantly lower due to playing with people ranging from age 18-24 on average (with a larger portion of those players being on the older end)</div></div>

The scoring in WHL, NCAA is a lot lower, but a 55 goal 86 point 46 games season in the OHL is still more impressive then a PPG in the NCAA
I'm not dying the homerism, but by saying "moves up to the first round" are you implying he is a late first?
Cause that's just more wrong then my homerism (top 10) take
Doesn't he have the 5th most NHL experience in this group btw? idk. You don't have to think about NHL experience after the top 3
Without bias I could 100% argue a top 15.
Also this year Robertson is going to play at least his 7 games, maybe more at 19 years old on the best 5v5 scoring team in the past few years.

The real answer will probably end up being in between our takes. I can't wait to find out.

Thread: Redraft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Tomasino had 100 points in the exact same league, Zegras and Newhook were both over a ppg in the NCAA, Byram was over a ppg in the WHL, Cozens had 85 in 51 in the WHL, McMichael had a higher ppg than Robertson in the OHL, Dustin Wolf won 3 goalie of the year awards. Sorry to tell you but Robertson's only stand out thing was his goal scoring

In a redraft right now nobody but you is taking Robertson in the top 10</div></div>

You realize Robertson only played 46 games.
If Robertson played the same amount of games as Tomasino he was on pace for 116 points
If Robertson played the same amount of games as Cozens he was on pace for 95

(Full OHL season) Robertson was on pace for 81 GOALS, &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; PPG in NCAA

Only one thats close is McMicheal (adjusted to the same about of games)
McMicheal - 47 Goals 102 Points
Robertson - 62 Goals 97 Points
Idk, I'm taking the 5 less points for the 15 more goals player

I'm not gonna compare a goalie.

The only reason he would drop again out of the top 10 is because he is 5'9. He is also the youngest of them.
Obviously goals and assists aren't everything and I understand dropping him due to size and the other players having higher ceiling, but you cannot deny his historic season.

Thread: Re-Doing the 2019 draft (Lots of World Junior Players)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HatterTParty</b></div><div>Like I said, they were each awful in their own ways and history shows that even more. Ya can’t say one deserves to be over the other a year on. As far as I’m concerned, 1-3 is still the same. In five years time, sure, we can readdress this, but to suggest Dach was light years better then the other two is just brutal. That’s basically setting the bar as low as possible to make him look good.</div></div>

You are putting words into my mouth.
Never said "Dach was light years better"
Dach and Hughes had VERY similar seasons (Interchanging them is fine). Kakko had a historically bad season so I ranked him lower. All of them are really close.
I saw you respond to HatterTParty, Zegras hasn/t done enough to prove why he should be moved into the top 3
He had a great season in the NCAA, but not enough to overtake any of their spots.
This list can change very fast, but for right now I feel like its pretty decent (I'd make a few changes)

Thread: Re-Doing the 2019 draft (Lots of World Junior Players)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HatterTParty</b></div><div>You also gotta remember, the trifecta of hughes, Kakko, and Dach had one of the worst statistical rookie years cumulative in the history of the NHL. As such, saying that Dach was better than Hughes by certain numbers isn’t saying much at all. They each we’re bad in their own ways.

Also, Trevor Zegras is a monster, pure and simple. He is BY FAR the best pure playmaker in the 2019 draft class. I truly believe he’ll be the best player in the draft class.

1. Zegras
2. Hughes
3. Kakko
4. Dach

Suffice to say, I’d take Zegras over any player in that draft at present in a redraft.</div></div>

Such recency bias. Just because he is killing it at the NHL doesn't mean he deserves a spot over any of the three NHLers.
Kakko had such an awful first season so i'm going Dach &gt; Kakko.
Zegras' NCAA season was good but doesn't move him near the 1st pick.

Thread: tough choices
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dotz789</b></div><div>CBJ isn’t trading Korposalo this year.. unless of course Marner was apart of the deal. No point for them. They’ve got two outstanding goalies that will split time and a ton of cap space to sign Hall, Toffoli, Hoffman, Etc.. whoever they want pretty much. Also Thornton will be signing with a contender. Idk that Toronto is a contender rn😂 Plus your roster is 3 men short with no cap space left to fill it. You can’t afford Pietrangelo.</div></div>

Last year was a ****show with injuries, a coaching change mid season ,massive holes in the team.
With all this under Sheldon Keefe as the head coach we were on pace for 103 points (Tampa Bay was on pace for 107)
Our Team has fixed the Major hole with Brodie (Obviously still a weak point but it's not Ceci)
Nylander Matthews Marner all get closer to their prime. Tavares just turned 30 another 2-4 years before he starts to decline (Depends on the player)
We added Grit in Simmonds and Bogosian also increasing our defensive capability with replacing Kapanen with a defensive forward in Barabanov
After all these loses in the playoffs I think we can be a dark horse contender, not Avs, Tampa, and Boston level but a strong team that can be a surprise
