Celebrini for Calder

[Lebanezer]

Yeah because Michkov is in an entirely different stratosphere than Celebrini!

If you mean because Michkov is stuck in the earth's stratosphere while Celebrini ascends into the greater depths of space? Then yes, you are correct.

Long way to go concerning the Calder but I believe that Michkov may win some individual awards but Macklin is going to make others better players.
That’s what I’d rather have leading my team.

I know everyone on here already knows this, but there is no debate between Michkov and Celebrini.

Celebrini's stats are a Potemkin village

Late to the Rookie Stats party, but for those who use a computer, the NHL Stats page has 4 pre-selected player categories displayed: Skaters, Goalies, Defensemen, Rookies.

Michfraud 0 points, -2, stopped a Konecny shot from going in

Oh and he's still 20 years old. And a smurf.

I'm getting a chuckle out of all this Smurf stuff, but just to be sure, you personally are taller than Michkov, right?

<--5'9, so can't actually talk shit, but will anyway.

Hodge is 4'8. So, yes.

Michkov is looking good though to be fair

The thing is, he is truly is a 3-dimensional Matvillain. He's not some villainous mustache-twirler, constantly taking advantage of the weak, unintelligent and vulnerable, unlike some other villains I care not to really discuss right now. Instead of hating him through and through, there have been times when I felt sorry for him, and wondered whether our incrimination of him has gone too far.

There is a nuance in his character where he started off as pretty evil, throwing every team that wanted to draft him under the bus, but he eventually became, I daresay.. a human being. And that's what makes him truly dangerous.

FWIW, here's where vegas sits:

• Michkov the favorite at -185 to -215
• Celebrini in 2nd at +165 to +125
• Enormous dropoff to Hutson at +1300-3300

Obviously the line will move, because Celebrini was in the lead before Michkov scored 10 in 6 or whatever.

Nice! Which Fanatics version did you get and how's the quality?

I took the fanatics branded home breakaway. One reason was to get it at the nhl shop europe, so i hadn't to pay taxes and hadn't to wait about 8 weeks or more. The quality is good and i can't complain about "mistakes" like numbers touching the bottom stripe or so.
And the price (~150€) is totally fine for me in comparison to the original adidas jersey (i got one too #65, years ago).

Michkov will have to outscore Celebrini by a significant margin, like 2x, to win. The fact that he's favored is just a product of Celebrini missing games to start the season.

I hope you're right, but there's East Coast bias to contend with and Michkov looks good, so he very well could outscore Macklin by enough to matter. If they're both PPG, but that means Matvei has 75+ points, it could be a Crosby/Ovechkin situation. Ovie won with 106 and Crosby had 102.
