Fair enough but I think you are underating the. Couture is a terrific 2 way center, and Barzal is a really terrific young player. Trotz had him concentrating more on tbe defensive side last season and if course had no #2 to take some heat off him. He drives the play and holds and always has and holds onto the puck with terrific, skating, vision and passing. He's needs to shoot more but he's a better player. I don't think we have similar views on what a better player is. He's the better player you just don't know it yet..I guess I misunderstood, I thought you meant Canadian NHL teams.
That said, I don't understand why he has to be one of the best centers in all of Canada to not be overrated. And I sure as hell woulda not rank him below Couture, Barzal, Scheifele, or Point. And I'd be hard-pressed to rank Seguin above him.
Same can be said for Point although I think Barzal is better. Either way he can't make a team Canada at C which is no shame.
PS after all.that I realised I misunderstood you too.
Overated because the media had him a top Center in the league.
