Beleskey has always been an NHLer. He's just overpaid.
They’re also going to regret not taking Necas, Vilardi, Thomas, Vesalainen, Jokiharju, and arguably 3-5 more players.Liljegren and Branstrom are awesome prospects but are playing in a league where lias preformed at near ppg. As for Mittlesdat hes extremly overrated imho. If the Rangers are gonna regret taking someone its Suzuki but you’re underselling lias
Again you are seriously underselling Lias, he can be a really good second liner/borderline first liner but well have to agree to disagree. I think your Lias takes are almost as bad as your Pionk onesHe’s really not. I just don’t see it. I’ve seen him do well in other leagues, fine. However, there have been many players that got over a point per game in lower leagues, including the AHL, and could never translate it to the NHL. I understand why people like Lias, but I see him as an excellent 3rd liner (maybe a below average 2nd liner) at best. I also value prospects with high ceilings (and low floors) much more than prospects with high floors (and low ceilings).
I’d take Lias over Vilardi, Thomas, and VesalainenThey’re also going to regret not taking Necas, Vilardi, Thomas, Vesalainen, Jokiharju, and arguably 3-5 more players.
Agreed, but the crazy thing is that ADA didn’t even give the puck away that time.*ADA gives the puck away*
Joe: "Bad giveaway by DeAngelo"
*Skjei gives the puck away*
Joe: "Bad slide by DeAngelo"
Skjei and ADA together defensively is sure something special
