Two centres from the 2015 draft who were very close in point production this year. Eichel with 82 (77 GP) and Aho with 83 (82 GP). Who would you take?
to be fair as we saw with kane and o'reilly star players seem to score significantly more upon leaving buffaloAho
Same offensive pace, much better defensively

that is true but they are an elite chance generating team even when aho isnt on the ice. buffalo cant generate anything when eich is off. both are top-12 centers in the league to me and clearly legit 1cs but i think eichel's raw scoring is a bit misleading.Carolina hasn't exactly been known for their offense over the last few years either.

looking at cumulative 16-19 stats for while a player was with a team, ROR had 4th line level scoring rate 5v5 in buffalo and now has a 1st line rate in STL. evander kane had a 2nd line rate in buffalo and has a good 1st line rate in SJ. despite all of this eichel has a 1st line rate in that span in buffalo despite a weak 16-17. and this season alone despite still being in buffalo he has the highest primary scoring rate out of himself and the 2 guys who left buffalo.
Easily? Aho just had a better season on a not so great team either. Just like Eichel on BUF Carolina leans on him heavily and his their main guy.Aho's good, but Eichel easily.
Eichel's one of the best players in the league but has been unlucky with being drafted by a terrible organization. Although, they also drafted Dahlin, so I think changes are coming and they'll be a playoff team within a season or two.
not so great team but managed to make the playoffs while the Sabres haven't finshed better than 8th last since forever....just beat the Caps 5-0 in the playoffs...must be a sub par team like the Sabres.Easily?
