Over Hischier? Okay..
Larkin I will say is more of a toss up and I really don't know much about Thomas.
They're both really close, no wrong choice, idk why Xirik feel so insulted by that notionI don't think Suzuki is wildly outlandish. I wouldn't argue with anyone taking Hischier over him. It's definitely a reasonable comparison.
Did you not read the thread?They're both really close, no wrong choice, idk why Xirik feel so insulted by that notion
Agreed. I said McDavid was number 1. I also stated that a team built around Barkov defeated a team built around McDrai, because it’s a fact we can’t ignore. Top 3 centerman can do that to the number 1. Top 5, they tend to live for the handshake lines in the second round at best.
Matthews is a significantly better player than Draisaitl. Goal scoring and defensively isn’t even close. He’s also better physically.
Matthews has 80 more even strength goals than Drai, in 160 less games.
I get that it’s fun to trash the Leafs. But people really need to stop putting Draisaitl in the same conversation. One trick ponies on the PP aren’t better than record setting goal scorers that are Selke nominees.
Hischier is better then Suzuki, its's not complicated. the only people who think differently are some Hab's fans.
You don't have to act like they don't deserve to be in the same conversationDid you not read the thread?
one of the usual suspects mocked my post without even quoting me so I pushe back, The other ones appeared and did the same so again I respond in kind.
@Sasha Orlov disagreed with me, I disagreed with him. that was the end of it.
Lolwut?I see another way is works is Panthers fans hide behind their stars' injuries in '23 and in '24 they chest thump and ignore their opponents'....

Draisaitl had a broken finger and broken rib. Kane was unable to play at all because of his sport hernia. McDavid was playing through an abdominal injury that hampered his ability to shoot the puck all year.Lolwut?
Does Edmonton have two top 4 defenseman about to miss the first few months of the season due to surgery? Did one of “mcdrai” go down with a broken sternum?? Did their 3rd line 2-way guy have a broken leg? Panthers most likely still lose that series if healthy (Staal brothers, White on the 4th line, amongst other reasons), but the injuries didn’t help.
What were the big bad injuries to Edmonton that compares to the Panthers’ injuries last year?? Other than fatigue because their coach wore “McCain” TF out?
Lmao, what a post. Oil fans in this thread are almost as bad as they were prior to the start of the series.
Their is nothing wrong putting Suzuki, Larkin and Thomas over Hischier.....those are all similar piecesZibz

Miller is old. EP isnt.Seeing EP ranked over Miller is like seeing Matthews over McDavid wtf.
Not only is it backasswards, but there needs to be at least several players between them.
Not last year, and it isn’t a career listing, JT is better atm.Miller is old. EP isnt.
also EP has a higher PPG. It is a no brainer really.
So you are saying that JT Miller is better than Mitch Marner also because he had a down year?Not last year, and it isn’t a career listing, JT is better atm.
lol, it’s a thread comparison of centres, not wingers and centresSo you are saying that JT Miller is better than Mitch Marner also because he had a down year?
Miller is 31 years old, he will be washed up soon
But it is a projection for this upcoming season and Pettersson will bounce back and outscore an aging Millerlol, it’s a thread comparison of centres, not wingers and centres
69. Nice69 goals will do that
NHL Network producers and analysts on Wednesday revealed their list of the top 20 centers in the League right now.But it is a projection for this upcoming season and Pettersson will bounce back and outscore an aging Miller
You are literally only saying this because EP is SwedishBut it is a projection for this upcoming season and Pettersson will bounce back and outscore an aging Miller
Or because he is 6 years younger with a career PPG at 1.02 vs a career PPG 0.79You are literally only saying this because EP is Swedish
Suzuki needed to shoot 18% to match Nico’s production. If he doesn’t increase his shot rate, he will likely be around 20-25 goals next yearSuzuki is the more dynamic player and trending up year on year. Suzuki is also a tremendous defensive player. And very durable.
You guys need to quit your crying! lol Its just a poll by NHL.com. Its not the end of the world.
But nobody is playing hockey right now, duh.NHL Network producers and analysts on Wednesday revealed their list of the top 20 centers in the League right now.
It’s not for upcoming season, it’s as of today.
