Player Discussion Nicholas Robertson vs. Ryan Reaves

[Enniskillen]

Why didn’t OP compare Robertson to Kampf, Dewar, Holmberg or Domi? He is focused on production of bottom 6 and picks Reaves of all people? Seems kind of biased to me.

Our third kind has been him n bobby

I've been really impressed with McMann's play this year.

Robertson is worth more to the leafs than another team right now.

His defensive awareness leaves a lot to be desired. Not sure he dresses in the playoffs.

In their first head to head performance since this thread was created, Ryan Reaves comes out the winner in the one game sample. 4 bone crushing hits willing his team to victory, while Robertson sputters and almost costs the leafs 2 points. Washed up goons defying the odds and making fools out of the doubters!

I think you take the good with the bad while the pucks are going in the net, but the turnover in New York on the PP is kind of your full Robertson experience.

Definitely. At the time Robertson was reeling. Reaves has been mostly reeling in his career as a maple leaf.

Perfect comparison, but but but I want to be clear: if Robertson plays well for TOR then I'm in his corner. It's not that it's biased. It's more a fan being exasperated by a player who has more to offer and should be better.
