I know. The Sens are well connected to the media and pay regularly to have their low stock players hyped.
Here’s some MOAR for you from Silver Sevens:
Perhaps the biggest factor in Tkachuk’s transition into the NHL was his relationship, both on and off the ice, with Mark Stone. Their chemistry was immediate and noticeable: they were the only two Sens to post a positive CF% for the season and their line with Colin White dominated in the way you’d expect a good first line to. There was concern for Tkachuk’s play after the loss of his mentor in a mid-season trade, and while there was an adjustment period, overall Tkachuk continued to progress and impress on his own merit. He finished his rook campaign with 22 goals and 45 points in 71 games played.
As Tkachuk fully grows and gains more experience, he has the potential to be a staple of not only the team but one of the stars of the league. Some fans are already calling him for to be named Captain and while I think he’s too young and inexperienced, he certainly does possess the qualities to become a leader in the room in a very short period of time.
So in response to my statement that Brady is overhyped, you post articles where his current and future impact is overstated. Interesting tactic.
What % of Sens articles this year focussed on Brady?
What % of Sens articles this year focussed on Chabot?
The more talented player is undersold and the far less talented player received an avalanche of coverage. Hence OVERHYPED.
