DeBrincat is only 5ft7 and would've gone 1st overall in 2016 if you had the 1st overall pick....

As much as much as I hate to say it as a oilers fan I’d still pick the 60 goal man first overall , heck I’d even be inclined to pick tkachuck or mcavoy second before debrincat
Patrick Kane was 5'9 160

I think he's anywhere from the 5th - 10th best player from that draft as of right now:
1 Matthews
2 Fox
3McAvoy
4 Bratt
5 Laine
6 Tkachuk
7 Debrincat
8 Keller
9 Kyrou
10 Sergachev

How on earth can you rank Bratt ahead of Tkachuk, DeBrincat, Laine and even Keller?
This is the first time in his career he scored more than 35 points. Talk out Bias.

They call that extreme homerism and can never be taken seriously.How on earth can you rank Bratt ahead of Tkachuk, DeBrincat, Laine and even Keller?
Nothing to do with him being a Devil. He's an all world talent.How on earth can you rank Bratt ahead of Tkachuk, DeBrincat, Laine and even Keller?
Talk out Bias.

over Matthews?
You missed the joke on this one. The person he was responding to is very biased towards the CHL.

Bratt over Tkachuk?? DeBrincat should be above him (Bratt) too, but Tkachuk is just outrageous. I might take Kyrou over Bratt as well, but they are indeed close.
Lol and.... Tkachuk and DeBrincat are pretty good talents as well...
I don't think anyone other than Devils fans are taking Bratt top 5 in this redraft. Comfortably top 10 though

You'd have to go all the way back to 2019 with Jack Hughes who went 1st overall despite having the body of a 12 year old boy.

He has scored over 35 points once. That is something everyone I mentioned has done multiple times with DeBrincat, Laine and Tkachuk all placing in the top 10 in either goals or points at least once each.
Bratt had a hgue breakout last year and could very well continue at that pace if not better but there is 0 chance one can sanely rank him above the 4 I mentioned.

Leafer made a thread a year or two ago on the main boards saying how DeBrincat is potentially the best player in the entire league. That thread went over about as well as you'd expect and he's made various other comments hyping Cat up to insane degrees.over Matthews?
My comment was calling him out for his love of a player shorter than Bedard, while he questions whether Bedard's size will have a negative impact.

I saw Bedard compared to a supercharged DeBrincat in a brief social media scouting report and I liked the comp.
Fair enough but just evaluating skillsets and not production would inflate a guy like Poolparty or Laine for example.
I don't doubt that Bratt could end up being ranked as high as you placed him but he has to prove it for more than one season (and I think his 20-21 season was a stepping stone as well)
All world talent having his first 70pt (and first over 35pts) season of his career. Crazy.

True but Bedard is better in most areas than Point is.
Near generational talent like his won’t be limited due to his size

Agreed, he won't miss, I just wonder if he won't miss at centre or on the wing in the pros.
