Matias Maccelli has been quietly burning down villages

[mattihp]

I mean he is not wrong.

Different names, different nationalities. Where was he right?

 

[Sweetpotato]

This guy killed the Oilers last night - beast.

Never heard his name before these 2 games.

After watching him, he's going to be a star congrats yotes fans this guy is an absolute gem.

They both obviously have Italian roots and it's even more obviously the same name slightly adjusted for their native language just like Matthew, Matvei, Matas, etc. would be in the other countries?

Don't really see the point of this "they aren't similar at all" act.

Arnt they called villagios in Italy?

Similar is not the same. Too different things. Read the posts.

One difference is that Zuccarello comes from a single parent household whereas Maccelli was featured in the news already over 12 years ago in a piece about multi-generational families.

Lasten kuljettaminen treeneihin vaatii suunnittelua

Lasten vieminen liikuntaharrastuksiin aiheuttaa kiirettä ja vaatii suunnittelua. Monessa perheessä lapset harrastavat useita lajeja ja harjoitukset alkavat jo varhain iltapäivällä. Lisäksi esimerkiksi uintia, voimistelua ja jääkiekkoa harrrastetaan useita kertoja viikossa. Isovanhemmat...

Says his goal in life is to become an NHL player, but his coach dad was more skeptical about such perspectives.

 

[hirawl]

Such a deceptive player. Rewards the spectator many a time a game.

Say what you will but the Coyotes are a great bunch. Having caught a game every now and then this season I gotta say I've enjoyed more or less every one of them. A fun team to watch.

His two goals last night were carbon copy Gaudreau specials.

Wow. This seems good. Maccelli Elite playmaker?

Meaningless. He's been skating on a line with ... *checks notes* ... Jack McBain and Lawson Crouse.

Anyone would look like a superstar with linemates like that.

 

[traffic cone]

I think we have to acknowledge that Beniers is playing the more demanding position.

The post was obviously tongue-in-cheek, yeesh.

 

[Rompane]

Maccelli is best rookie but media has decided otherwise long ago. Never was given a chance to win calder.

McBain?

That’s great, but Maccelli plays for a money laundering front. It’s harder to to excel in that environment.

 

[Roof Daddy]

Didn’t know much about him up until I saw him twice in the same week against the Oil. For me, he looks similar to Johnny Gaudreau, except maybe trade a shade of skill for better defensive ability/puck tenacity. I was very impressed with what I saw.

I haven’t seen Gaudreau level speed from him. He’s quick, and his edgework is weirdly similar, but he doesn’t seem to have the same top gear.

Very few do though!

I know that they will gift Beniers the calder but, the moral winner is Maccelli.
He is the better player now and in the future.

Nothing away from Beniers, he'll be a great two-way center in the NHL,
Maccelli is just level(s) above him.

Predicting it right here, right now; Maccelli future 100 point player

 

[hirawl]

Might want to calm down there Georgie.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

George, FFS. Sometimes the obvious answer is the correct one. You don’t have to always try and be coy.

 

[themelkman]

Sounds like he should go to jail then

No way he ever scores 100 points with such poor finishing skills.

 

[Hntz]

This. Or does Georgie predict a 5+95 season from him?

 

[mattihp]

I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes a consistant 55-60 points scorer with occasional seasons that top that if he gets to play with a real sniper.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

No way he ever scores 100 points with such poor finishing skills.

Because no player with poor finishing skills has ever scored 100p???

Anyways, seems to me like Maccelli has a potential to be a play driving PPG winger, hope he can reach that.
