Prospect Info: Filip Mesar

[Kojo]

hes the better player thats why

I like their friendly rivalry but Slafkovsky is the better bigger player just deal with it.

 

[jrom]

What? Not at all… he has said multiple times that he has things to work on and get better at.

With the previous post about Mesar being our next captain I think it’s amateur level trolling.

 

[Big Empty]

Draft position in my honest opinion is mainly politics. Its what you see on the ice is what matters, what i see is that Mesar has a chip on his shoulder, keeps his head down and works like a horse, he got drafted 26th but he talks like he got drafted 275th, he's humble af and has big goals for himself. Slaf on the other hand acts like a pre-madona a bit and has the pressure to show that he's the true no1 overall and thats a double edge sword specially here with all the expectations and egos.

Slaf does not act like a prima donna.

I guess I’m tipsy, but I laughed way too hard at the term “pre-madona” (as opposed to the actual term, “prima donna”)

I'm not interested to argue againts fanboys, you have an image of him so i can only assume you're on the Slaf bandwagon so good for you but im allergic to blind love. The part you were replying, i never said Slaf doesn't say the right things. Like any proper top prospect they're told what to say to the media.

It almost sounds like you would hate it that Mesar ends up being the better player.

I know a big winger no1 overall sounds very sexy but why hate the guy that is just better in almost every way except shooting ?

Ahhh, you’re a troll. I understand better now.

How to resist such charm!

 

[Bombshell11]

Ahhh, you’re a troll. I understand better now.

You proved my point, you answered like a child and made no arguments. This is a discussion board and instead of discussing you took the easy route out. I'm sure you have plenty of opportunities to talk stupid on twitter or on other social media platforms.

In almost all scouting reports i have seen, scouting reports of videos and actual footage the difference in hockey IQ and skill between these 2 players is pretty considerable.

I bet you have not done your due diligence, i have.

Now will it hold true during training camp and pre-season, only time will tell but all i can say is ALOT of people will be surprised.

It replaces Before Christ or BC/AD as a time standard as well.

In which case this is about the year -40 P.M. by my estimates.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

He is really intriguing. He have high potential, high talent, great work ethic, great grit, his give all on ice, that's very good. Pretty good skillset, great playmaker, can shoot the puck aswell. Great stickhandling, great skating ability...

Sounds like a Palat or a more skilled Lehkonen

What da fak you talking about

You speak as though Slaf is a “Material Boy”

 

[Adriatic]

Can't get pre-madona outta my head now wtf was that lolol

I really dont wanna talk about Slaf here tbh not sure why the fanboys got so sensitive. I dint say Slaf sucks or anything, i just think that Mesar is a better hockey player and has a much brighter future, they remind of Martin St-louis and Lecavalier. Lecavalier was a 1st overall, 6.4' Center and st-louis undrafted 5.8' winger, at the time all the exposure was on Lecavalier. Clearly St-Louis had the better career, doesnt mean lecavalier was bad though.

So its just my opinion i think Mesar is going to become the best player out of those 2 and i think he's got what it takes to be the captain if he fulfils his hockey potential.

So you would have drafted Mesar first overall?

 

[Estimated_Prophet]

hes the better player thats why

You know more from your couch than every professional scout lol......embarrassing

 

[Bombshell11]

So drafting positions have nothing to do with who you think would be a better player.

If I know that Mesar will be available at 26th it will be extremely stupid of me to use my no1 pick for him.
So i would rather pick a guy who is highly wanted at no1 and which i have identified as top player my self and take Mesar at 26th as well, its a win-win situation.

Professional scouts don't choose the picks

Just to amuse you heres a scouting report from the same website, the first one that popped in google:

Slaf #4
Projection and Comparison
Slafkovsky has an intriguing combination of size and ability. He could become the most dominant player in this draft. However, the risk here is also pretty high as he is also under-developed as a prospect and has a few things to really work on. Expect him to spend another year or two in Europe or the AHL before he is ready for full-time NHL duty. He has the type of power forward game that nearly every team is looking for though and his potential is sky high. Slafkovsky’s game is reminiscent of Jesse Puljujarvi at times. However, this is a stylistic comparison only and not one based on his skill and ability.

Mesar #15
Projection and Comparison
Mesar has the potential to be a top-six centre at the next level, but there are still some areas he will need to work on. He is likely a couple of years away from being ready for the NHL. Expect him to spend another year in Slovakia, possibly coming to the AHL for the 2023-24 season. He should be a key player for Slovakia at the August World Junior Tournament as well as at the 2023 Tournament next winter. Mesar needs to add some muscle to his frame. He also needs to work on lengthening his stride, which could improve his top-end speed. His compete-level and defensive game are good for his age, so he has a good chance to be an NHL player, even if he falls a little short on his offensive potential. His game is reminiscent of Saku Koivu. This is a stylistic comparison and not one based on skill and potential.


You can easely find posts i made that Mesar reminded me of Koivu. Slaf is good too but he's not where most people think he is because most people only look at the draft position and not the actual content of their game.

I hope you actually read this and do your due diligence

I guess I’m tipsy, but I laughed way too hard at the term “pre-madona” (as opposed to the actual term, “prima donna”)

Slaf be acting like this and needs to stop.

Pre- Modonna.

 

[Faterson]

That would be prime-madona, not pre-madona.

Lol you know absolutely nothing about Slafkovsky but you sit in front of your pc and call him a "pre-madonna" GTFO atleast you post dumb comments like this from your 2nd account

I love you guys and gals! Seriously, it’s like belonging to a family with a 100 siblings constantly teasing each other. Myself included. This has to be the post of the year when taken in context! I’ve made some doozies as well lmao!
