Jack Eichel Overhyped or Overshadowed

[Pavels Dog]

Wasn't a big fan of him pre-injury and my opinion hasn't really changed for the better since. He's good, but seems consistently ranked like 10-20% too high. Doesn't help that he's also extremely unlikeable.

So succinctly stated...had to add only a few Gigs to my RAM.

He's very good, won a cup being one of the main sources of offence. Went toe to toe with mcdavid and imo outplayed him during that series. If anything he is underrated because he doesn't have the big point totals in the regular season but 2023 playoffs showed he can clutch up with the best of em.

Eichel seems like one the more consistently rated guys in the league.

He's the 8th-10th best center for pretty much everyone

The very next year however he began to show his true colors, the pre draft hype eichel has arrived. He came out determined more than ever showing he was n elite top ten talent. He could go end to end snipe any corner from anywhere the speed, keep away and dangle ability with the vision finally he had his Mackinnon like click looking unstoppable however the season was cut short due to another injury finishing with 68 games 36 goals 42 assists for 78 points with a fully healthy season he assuredly would have broken the 40 goal barrier and cracked 90 points scratching at 100 points.

COVID cut that season short, not injury.
