You wrote all of this just to be wrong again?

Context is very important.

Celebrini plays 20 minutes a night on the 1st line with Eklund (22 points) and Zetterlund (19 points) as his most common linemates, both of those guys have better play driving stats and suggest they boost Celebrini up


Michkov, who is scoring at a higher P/60 rate from the 3rd line getting 17:26 minutes plays with most common linemates of Frost (10 points) and Tippet (12 points), which michkov by far has the best play driving stats of the 3.


So.... Do you we go by your PPG rate or my P60 rate? i don't think we'll agree on either so lets just go by the REAL stats

Michkov has more goals
Michkov has double the assist
Michkov is a plus player on a minus 10 team
Michkov has more ESP
Michkov has more PPP
Michkov has better XGF stats
Michkov has better XGA stats

I mean, Celebrini has no REAL advantage on any REAL stats. And i'm sure you saw the game they played head to head?


This makes absolutely no sense. Celebrini will never have the impact a Kucherov or Kaprizov have on the game.

Toews was never as impactful as Kane despite what some Hawks fans told themselves years ago. No one is taking Bergeron over Kucherov.
Granlund is the Shark’s 1C and plays more than a minute more per game than Celebrini. Watch some hockey bud.

You’re too easy to laugh at sorry 😂

Then why did I only get one laugh emoji?

Now I am getting upset.

I'm feeling almost as left out as all of your "friends" at the park must feel after you've ignored all of them in order to pick(and lose) fights with random internet strangers on your phone instead.

I mean to be fair the Sharks probably have 3x the talent around Mack than Bedard has ever played with. I was a guy that was extremely critical of posters overrated Bedard before he came into the league but now I’m defending him because he’s getting underrated in this thread.

I think Bedard’s getting underrated too but as much as Celebrini has some better talent, I think he’s also a better play driver which helps maximize the talent around him. I’m not sure if Bedard would be much better than he has been if he were on San Jose. Bedard feels like he needs to play off an elite transition player right now.

I was thinking the same thing when I was thinking about their forward linemates, but it's not as cut and dry when you take their defenseman linemates into account as well. The most common defensemen that Bedard has shared the ice with at 5v5 are Alex Vlasic and Seth Jones, both legit top pair guys. By comparison, the most common defensemen that Celebrini has shared the ice with at 5v5 are Cody Ceci and Mario Ferraro, two replacement level guys.

It's fair to say Celebrini has better teammates. But "3x the talent" is hyperbole.
