#1OA Juraj Slafkovsky - Huge Disappointment

I guess that makes Elias Petterson not a 50-pts player as well.

Sure if he had only hit 50 points once but he isn't a 90 point player and I'll assume that you hit the 50 instead of 90 right?

I love that he keeps claiming "stats are stats" and then calls Slafkvosky a "45 point winger."

You would think if you were talking about a player who's only played one complete season in his NHL career, that if "stats were stats" the stats he posted in that one complete season would be a a big part of the argument.

Strangely, they are not. Instead, the "stats are stats" guy thinks the best representation of the statistics of the player who has only played one complete season in the NHL is not the stats he posted in that one complete season.

Gee, I wonder why that is?



I think he is literally on a pace to score 50 points right now.

You think its likely that he slows down his pace and gets worse as the season goes on?

At the time of the post he was just short and around a 45 point pace.

This metric isn't player specific, Hyman isn't a 50 goal guy he is a guy who once scored 59 goals.

If Slaf hits 59 points this year of heck even 49 sure call him a 50 point guy.

You set the rules. Live by them. Petterson isn't a 50 pts player.

Really he has 5 of 6 previous season with 66+ points (the only season less was injured 21 in 26 games)?

Seriously you know better but whatever.

This guy have mentality to be a difference maker.

He have the talent, to be a difference maker.

He have all things to become a difference maker.

He just need to play like he do right now in first half of season next year and he will have a great production.

Everyone speak about Demidov and Hutson, but Slaf aswell can be a very special player.
