Disagree. Not even comparing playing styles and just looking at stats:
PLD: 82 points 55 GP 6th in league scoring
Patrick: 79 points 60 GP 5th in league scoring
Looks close? Sure, then you have to realize Patrick had a SLOW start and is one of the hottest players in the CHL right now. Then, you can't even compare the two's defensive games. Patrick was taking dying seconds d zone faceoffs last season at 16(on McCrimmon's team). The kid is one of the best defensive players in the CHL already. Please do NOT tell me they are on the same level. Because they are NOT.
Dubois is perhaps the best defensive forward in the Q in my opinion, so there's that... his game was built around smarts and defensive play prior to this year where he also took a massive offensive step. No doubt Patrick is a better player and I think he'd go 2nd overall in this draft.. just your comments about defensive game and Dubois make little to me sense to me honestly.
