Woll stan.
Big body, can skate fast, and is capable of playing some excellent two way hockey at times. And when you see him at his best, you want a big center like that on your team.
Problem with him is consistency in his attitude which eventually wears out his welcome with teams

He is big and skates well but people who should know better keep expecting or hoping there is more when there isn't.
He is fine as a second line center but he will never be a top line center or much better than an average second line guy.
Basically a different version of Bo Horvat but with similar value.

I love his game when he’s playing at his best. Does come across as a me first type of player though.
He’s a diva who can be a great player at times though this is a rare occurrence

Always seemed like a really good 2nd line C to me

Certainly not a bad player but far from someone who can be one of the best players on a team with realistic cup aspirations. and is really not worth the hype and baggage.
wouldn't want him on my team

Can be the best player on the team when he decides to do that. Can be the worst player on the team he decides to do that.

As a former top prospect theres always going to be attention around him. His "coming out party" in the 2020 playoff bubble brought a lot of eyes to him.
Honestly, I think PLD will hit 80 points in LA, he has the talent and now that hes firmly in a location of his choosing, I think his days of half passing things are over.

Right down to the same draft spot. Wow. Excellent comparison.

He's more Chris Gratton than Keith Primeau.

One million less would have been better but I don’t see a monster contract here.
He will probably have a couple of 30 goals / 60 point seasons.
Looks lazy and disinterested to me at times. His face doesn’t help either.

Why does it matter he is heading back home to belle province to play the rest of his career

8 year contracts don't seem to be given out to anything other than franchise cornerstone pieces. And 8.5M is no small cap hit.
You can't teach 6'3
This is pretty close.
CBJ and Jets fans saw both of these PLD's fairly regularly.
When he's on, he's Eric Lindros. When he's off, he's just a mid level 2C.
