Chloe Primarano becomes the first female to be selected in the WHL Bantam Draft

[Stealth1616]

Based on what? Marie Phillipe Poulin would 100% decimate the CHL, just like Matthew Savoie is doing.

Women are weaker and slower and less durable on average, sure. The good thing with averages is that its just that, theres variation all over the place.

And no, she wouldnt be, shes be living in a less misogynistic time, lmao.

On the same account asian males cant play in the NHL because theyre on average weaker, smaller and weigh less. Lets call Suzuki, hes off the team.

Oh and theres no more white people on NBA, they cant jump.

Whats next? Were going to mention POC are dumber than blue eyes blond haired individuals?

Such a misinformed post man. Poulin would need to show she can dominate Midget AAA and Junior A boys before moving onto the WHL…. In no hitting games as well.

Again… not at all being misogynistic when people just point out straight facts

Its not a fact, its your opinion and your opinion turns out to be misogynistic.

 

[Sheppy]

It's unbelievable to me that these simple facts are considered controversial today.

It's actually outrageous. It's legitimately the way it works, and when you say this, you're the bad guy, or labelled.

 

[Stealth1616]

It literally is a fact, maybe do a bit of research before you think you are stating facts. Poulin has played against Jr.A players and got absolutely smoked. So perhaps it’s your opinion that may be out to lunch a bit ?

Dude, you are out of your mind if you think any female player would lay waste to the CHL. Lol.

Yeah, she wouldn't though and I'm a huge fan of MPP.

This is legitimately insane.

Lay waste is a strong term, but Im pretty sure shed be PPG ish.

If you think a trained female athlete in her physical prime is physically weaker than 16 17 and 18 years old, thats a big problem.

Again, I linked a paper in the 2nd page, go read it, very interesting.

Im also commenting as someone that is stronger than probably 98% of the population. The mid percentile men and upper women intersect a lot in physical ability, its a simple fact.

She very well could be. Keep in mind some of those 16, 17, 18 year olds are already much bigger. It's not like these 16, 17 and 18 year olds are 5'1'', 115.

A lot of them are smaller than 5'6 170 though.

 

[Sheppy]

I mean, sure? I guess. I just fail to see how she would lay waste to this league based on her size?

I don't know. Maybe I'm insane here.

The Canadian women's hockey team was pushed out of its comfort zone in pre-Olympic preparation. The players didn't always like it.

Shes in her prime, shes as skilled as most, shes big enough and strong enough to play there, shes probably faster than most there, she would definitely have success.

you're not the one insane here. @Mrb1p on the other hand ...

 

[Sheppy]

So, scratch all of this...

I have no issues with them drafting a female player, I think it's great.

That said, what happens to the dude who lines her up and clobbers her with an open ice hit? We can't just sit here and act like he won't have any sort of repercussions not only on the ice, but with the media as well. That poor soul would be dragged beyond belief.

Success is one thing. Laying waste to the league is another.

Yes a team of inferior players were defeated by better players, thats crazy! MPP and the better women player dominate these women leagues.

Its the same as Draisaitl and Eller getting exploded in international play, doesnt mean that an individual isnt good enough.

She signs up for the big boys, shes open season.

Laying waste is a strong arbitrary term, ok

Based on what? Marie Phillipe Poulin would 100% decimate the CHL, just like Matthew Savoie is doing.

You know Poulin has played against CHLers, right? In the under 17 tournament last year she was on Canada and they didn't win a single game. She had decent stats but was hardly dominate and that was only against guys who would typically be 3rd and 4th liners for most of the season in the league.

Where do you get the idea that she would decimate a league that features high first round nhl draft picks?

As much as we can sit here and say that, it won't be the case. She storms down the wing, gets trucked by a guy who's 6'2'', 210-220, they'll be facing a media shit storm, and most likely an on ice shit storm.

I feel that guys in that league will have a hard time adapting when she's on the ice. I think they'll be passive, and kind of take it easy, but there might be someone who doesn't. I think guys will change their style of play when she's out there and that's not good.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

She’s about the same height as Johnny Gaudreau. 4 inches taller than Nathan Gerbe. Physical disadvantages blah blah, she can put on some weight and hit the weight room and won’t have any problems. Men get crushed too, it happens and it’s fine. If she’s smarter and faster than the guys, who cares about her size.

Men also get punched in the face during scrums and the offender usually only gets 2 mins. Men and Woman are built differently. Its why when a man punches a woman in a bar, its looked down upon more than if a man punched another man.

What happens when shes trying to protect her goalie and a 20 year 6'4 man just punches her in the face? 2 mins? The dynamitic of the game simply makes this a bad idea, which is why I don't think it'll happen.

The average women "pro" is much worse than the average Junior, MPP dominates her own league too, she routinely collects 2.00 ppg everywhere she goes.

Its a societal problem with womens hockey just being less developed than men, its not because women are so inferior to men that theyd lose to 14 years old. MPP is the best example, she played with women against kids like Neighbors, Tracey and Wiesblatt and did good.

In a heterogeneous environment, slight size and strength and speed difference don't matter as much, its exactly why you can see absolute physical dingus like Desharnais still play at a very decent level in the NHL.

You really need to step back and tone it down with this bullshit. If you can't answer the question, that's on you. But once again, you can't, and then you pipe in with this trash.
