C/LW Anton Lundell - IFK Helsinki, Liiga (2020, 12th, FLA) Part2

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Fair enough its just my opinion. Its not like I think hes a bad player. I just have him closer to 20 than 10

How do you have him anywhere when you clearly don't even watch Liiga. Blindly ranking players is useless

Watching WJC doesn't count for much dude

Man you told me Kakko was the most NHL ready prospect there ever was and would be a ppg player. And You made a separate burner account to try and reinforce the point...

You not replying to what I said above means that you in fact do not have any examples of Jokke Nevalainen being biased towards Finns. Can we assume you just pulled that out of your ass?

By the way, I've not made any new accounts. PM a mod and ask how many accounts have used this IP.

Pretty sure what you said about me is also not true, although I do think Kakko will be a PPG player. 99% of the time I spent talking about how Hughes was not nearly as good as people thought he was, my Kakko hyping was quite limited in comparison - though the vast majority of people, including you, thought I was putting Hughes down for the sake of pumping Kakko up, which wasn't the case. I just thought Hughes was quite disappointing and overhyped.

Nevertheless, it's curious how you continue being so obsessed with Finnish prospects.

Let's get back to rating Lundell, as opposed to rating HF posters.

Till think Lundell to MN makes too much sense. If he has a good fall, could see BUF take him , too.

He'd be a good fit in Buffalo.

For the life of me I cannot figure out why

 

[57special]

Both Boldy and Crouse are wings, though i would argue pretty different types of players. Lundell is a C. I would say that those three players are pretty dissimilar.

as in high floor prospect / safe prospects. even if they don't hit they should be at least bottom six nhlers, thats what i mean. can you read ? or even try and put 2 and 2 together? hmm guess that answers my question that lundel is just a safe nothing burger prospect. total flop of a player.

Is this how you talk to people in person?
Why not try discussing things civilly? It's just a hockey forum...what we are talking about here just isn't that important.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Wasn't IQ a deterrent for Crouse(not sure as much Boldy) or mostly any big man drafted early?

It's Lundell's best asset.

Relax dude it's a hockey forum, chilllll

Crouse- Big, physical power forward who plays with an edge.

Boldy- Smart, skilled offensive winger with good size. Not particularly physical.

Lundell- Smart, true two way C with good size. Offensive upside open to question.

I get Radek Faksa vibes from him which is still a valuable player but not someone who you'd wanna select in the top 10 IMO.

Good IQ (especially defensively) but overall has a very average offensive toolkit and probably below average skating as well to (although apparently is has improved but how much?)

One of the older players in the draft as well, only being 18 days off from being eligible in the 2019 draft as well, so thats probably something to keep in mind as well.

That’s a wide range of vibes

Radek Faksa isn't really a good comparable IMO. I think Lundell has him beat in most catgeories. I also don't know of the upside with him but I would say its definitely higher than Faksa who wasnt even a great junior player.

He's somewhere between Tanner Glass and Wayne Gretzky

I mean its not tough to tell where his bias lies taking 5 minutes to scroll thru his twitter.

im sure a mod would disclose that....

You spent your time bashing Hughes and saying Kakko was a far superior prospect, and would have a more successful rookie year easily. He didnt

im not obsessed with Finnish prospects. I am curious about their fanboy poster’s delusions though

 

[Artorius Horus T]

I think who ever gets Lundell, its Sebastian Aho all over again situation; awesome prospect, but for some reason falls in the rankings, ergo;
doesn't get drafted early as should of. Now Aho felled to the 2nd round, for some reason, Lundell is gonna get drafted in the 1st round thou.

Man you 2 should really get a room already

 

[57special]

Floor of Radek Faksa, ceiling of Mikko Koivu. Split the difference and you get a 2C who scores 40-50pts. in his prime and plays vg+ defense. Not sexy, but very useful.

That is a very low end 2C. That's more of a high end 3C.
