How are we still in this game?

He played pro hockey since he was 17. He was one of the instrumental players to HV71's SHL championship at the age of 18. He led his team at the World Juniors and was their best forward.

You said there is a slim chance of him developing at age 20. I still have to see what this is based on. Not even McDavid reached his ceiling at age 20. It's just an ignorant statement based on a disappointing performance in the NHL at age 20. Again, Couture, Scheiffele, Kadri, Granlund, Niederreiter. Schenn etc didn't even play in the NHL at that age.
Wtf? Do you not understand that playing in the NHL at a young age does not equal having a great career? And those players you mentioned were projected to have more upside than Lias. It just took them a little longer to get to the NHL. It happens, but it really doesn’t mean s**t. For example, Barzal took a little longer to get to the NHL than Lias, so does that mean Lias is better? Come on, dude. This is basic stuff.

You know what's basic stuff? The FACT that 20 year olds still develop.
 
Looks like a bad goal from MAF but that's become something of a signature goal for Kreider. He's gotta be doing something right.
 
Wow......Kreids has really improved as a player. He NEVER had that quick release. Anyone that wants him traded.....or complains he disappears....well, there are many players that dont make their mark in any given game....until that special moment.
 
Andersson is not the one who played junior hockey. He played professionally.
Yea, but doing well in a professional league does not mean it will translate the NHL. Look at some of the players that have great seasons in the KHL, but come here and don’t do as well.
