Proposal: STL - BOS, Shattenkirk, Pastrnak

[Oberyn]

Thank you. Exactly my line of thinking.

PS: ...and Krug is younger than Shattenkirk, Pastrnak than Tarasenko... Tarasenko wasn't even in the NHL at 20...

Yeah because there was a lockout lol

 

[Tim Vezina Thomas]

So its settled, Pastrnak for Tarasenko. No takesies backsies.

Only on the condition that we all let the thread die.

At this point Bruins should be looking to add a scoring winger, not subtract one.

They will be soon. Vatrano.

Tarasenko would've been in the NHL at 20, except there was no NHL.

Tarasenko would have turned 20 in the early part of the 2011-12 season, seeing he was born December 13, 1991. The 2011-12 season was normally played.
I am having a deja vu: it feels like I am watching a 1994 movie starring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels when I speak to you two. Go figure out which one.

Yes and he would have stayed 20 at the start of the 2012-2013 season had their not been a lockout. He turned 21 in December 2012. The regular season would have started in October 2012, so yeah he would have been in the NHL at 20 from October to late December.

Plenty of chances for that to happen in 2011-12. If he was that good, why wasn't he in the NHL in that season? Bottom line, Pastrnak in the NHL since 18, Tarasenko since 21: Pastrnak eons ahead of Tarasenko at the same age (<-- fact).

He wasn't in the NHL because he was under contract with his KHL team.

Love how you're trying to direct this conversation away from the fact that you looked like an idiot with your previous post.

That was my first post in this entire thread. We haven't really been speaking.
But inferring us as dumb when were both correct (he would've been 20 until late December, so he would have played in the NHL at 20) doesn't make you look so smart.

Pastrnak playing in the NHL at 20 is irrelevant IMO when comparing him to Tarasenko. He's had a good 20 games and looks like a promising player. Let's see if he can keep it up over 82 games before comparing him to the 2nd best sniper on the planet. What age Tarasenko started has no meaning at this point. He is a superstar today and that is all that matters. That said, I wouldn't trade Pastrnak if I'm Boston. Boston should hold onto him.

As you can see by my Massachusetts location, I am an unbiased Bruins fan. I declare Prince Oberyn and Blues the winners of this online argument, and BruinsLVGA..not so much...

Yeah, great contribution as your first post.

Tarasenko had a chance to play in the NHL for most of his 20th year of life in 2011-12. You saying that he couldn't because the NHL wasn't playing doesn't make YOU sound smart because it is not true. From December 2011 to June 2012, he could have been there, he wasn't.

Forget about irrelevant or not irrelevant. I am saying that Pastrnak at 20 is much better than Tarasenko at 20. Pastrnak at 20 is ppg in the NHL, Tarasenko was in Novosibirsk. This is not up to debate, it is a FACT.

How? Just casually stroll away from his KHL contract and join the Blues? You're not making any sense.

I love how your argument has gone from "Tarasenko wasn't even in the NHL at 20" to "Tarasenko wasn't even in the NHL for most of his 20th year of birth".
