Is Brady Tkachuk currently overrated?

[Agent Zuuuub]

That's just a cop-out answer.

giving the captaincy to players who had no idea what it takes to win in the nhl because of last names and marketing was the cop out.

Again, ancient history lesson.

Are you saying that once he was able to play close to a full season? Ok?

Great, again, history lesson.

I'm quite confused... I was talking about "the last 3 years" in post #37 but you came back with "2017-2024" in post #38 and now you're telling me this "history lesson" thing

Not sure which direction I'm supposed to go here lol

It's not particularly disingenuous when most of his competitors in that comparative ranking also had their rookie seasons and also missed games due to the pandemic in the same span.

Which "comparative ranking"? If you include the rookie season where a player played in the AHL and 2 seasons there was a pandemic, it's going to largely skew the results.

For example, for Erik Karlsson, if you look at these 3 particular seasons, he has averaged 29 pts per 56 games despite his 11.5 AAV, which doesn't reflect that he is one the best offensive D-men of all-time.

If your time machine is in working order, I'm sure we have a solution to our apparent disagreement on his current level of play.

Did we?

The disagreement seemed to be when I said that Chabot was in the 2nd tier among Sens players with guys like Tkachuk, Batherson and Norris (Stutzle and Sanderson in a clear 1st tier) and you replied "is he though?"

The fact that it's "only been 3 seasons" omits the fact that they are the most relevant seasons to consider given that they are the 3 most recent seasons. Now who is being disingenuous?

Sorry but I'm not following, this conversation has lost the "logic plot". As I said, I was talking about the last 3 seasons and you went back to 2017-2024 as a counter fact

Currently? He's always been overrated.

This is an interesting question. I often wonder how he would compare to someone like Mitch Marner of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

I suppose will never know what people think about the comparison, but it's an interesting thought point.

Obviously he is overrated based on the Marner poll results

A 25 year old, 6'4, rugged winger that scores 35 goals and around a point per game. Yeah, who would want a player like that.

He’s a career average 65pts per 82 games, and has never made the playoffs in his career.

I mean, he’s just average. There is nothing that stands out about this guy

I think Marner is better but saying Brady is just average and nothing stands out is a bit extreme and just as bad/biased as the people taking him over marner
