Is Leon Draisaitl on pace to be the best non-“big six” nation hockey player ever?

[McPoyle]

Oilers fans getting in a Jimmy over a different opinion. Shocking.

You think Chara is a 55 goal scorer on the Oilers?

 

[McFlash97]

Doubtful, nothing more than a wild assumption that that Draisaitl would make that big of an impact on another team.


It’s a Draisaitl thread and not a McDavid thread.

Doesn't matter though, you seem to be all over every single Oiler thread.

The opinion would have to be something that makes logical sense....If I believe unicorns are real, I would expect people who try to correct me. Just human nature

Hockey fans use a hockey forum to comment on hockey related topics, what a shocking revelation. I could always just post in threads to discuss the forum users and not the actual topic

Dude spends more time talking about the Oilers than any other team on here, it's weird.

It’s shit analysis too.

“I can assume Draisaitl is worse on another team, but you can’t assume Draisaitl is the same or better.”

Makes no sense whatsoever and has no wherewithal to apply his own arguments consistently.

Maybe, if you started watching hockey in 2021. Kopitar will not be passed anytime soon

Draisaitl has passed Kopitar, he can't even see Kopitar. Kopitar is a dot to him.

You're referring to Zdeno Chara, right? AKA a defenseman who career high in goals was 19 and points was 52. How the f*** would Chara put up the 'same' numbers, exactly? Nobody has to be an Oiler fan to clown that ridiculous post of yours.

Obviously that means Zdeno Chara would put up NUMBERS. He would put up better numbers than Bouchard who has become grossly overrated riding Mcdavid’s coattails just like Leon.

Great…another goofy poster that makes assumptions and just pretends it’s a fact.

So who should we deduct on the Panthers?

Reinhart plays with Barkov correct? Who’s riding who’s coattails and is overrated?

I’m going to assume Barkov is overrated and is really only a 70 point player because apparently that’s what every moronic poster on here can do now.

Or do your assumptions only apply to the Oilers?

Eh, Chara is a weird one because he wasn’t exactly an offensive defenceman. I don’t see him benefiting much from a new team. Draisaitl could move up this list if he proves he can be the type of player he is without McDavid

Mikita (depending how you define him)
P. Statsny (depending how you define him)
Kopitar
Hossa
Draisaitl
Chara
A. Statsny
Bondra
Gaborik
Josi

I didn't think this was rocket science, but players that win multiple major awards don't ride coattails of other players. Either do players with 3 50-goal seasons and 5 100-point seasons. Putting up these types of numbers one year is a fluke, but doing it most years is a pattern of a player that's obviously elite with or without the help of others.

Yep exactly. 50-50 seasons are a rare elite thing showing a player can be both a top level scorer and playmaker. In the last 15 years there have been 11 50-50 seasons.

Crosby x 1
MacKinnon x 1
Malkin x 1
Pastrnak x 1
Rantanen x 1
McDavid x 1
Ovechkin x 2

and Draisaitl x 3

He is one of the best players in the league the last decade and I can't help but laugh at people still saying he is a product of another player.
