I didnt brought Durzi into this thread because that would be too obvious. Heck, I believe his name was mentioned one time, and now two times. Just because you seem to want so. Neither did i mention Dermott but that was a good comparison.
Dermott was not a good comparison. Like I said before the only thing they have in common is the team they were drafted by. It is lazy and ill-informed.
I'm hoping Dubas can sign him for as long as possible this offseason. He looks he's going to be a top pairing defenseman sooner rather than later.
LOL. Tell me you know nothing about the player without saying it.
Tell me you have a blind bias for everything Leafs without saying it.
Ok I'm biased. Prove to me Timmy will not be a top 4 d-man. You must have solid proof if your opinion is a fact. I watch him, he projects as top 4. He's playing at the top of his game right now.
Prove to you ? LMAO. your default is he is going to be a top 4? What planet are you on? That is proof of your bias. You are welcome for your education. How about a little more education, he's not playing top 4 right now. Because the Leafs had some injuries and he creeped into a top 4 spot a couple of times and then was promptly dropped back down doesn't make him a top 4 Dman. And this is the top of his game? Yikes!
He's literally doing better than Holl right now and playing in our top 4. Thanks for playing.
I liked Dermot as a Leaf and thought he had top 4 potential. He may still have top 4 potential but he has yet to put 'it' together as a player. If he ever does he could easily be a top 4 Dman on any team in the NHL, more likely on a poor team like Vancouver.
When did Bracco ever prove himself at the nhl level to be a capable player? Lilly has literally exceeded every expectation put in front of him for level of play
Let’s just be glad Bracco never hit NHL surface and scored a couple in his first few games.
Based on what? Literally every deal he’s signed aside from marner is market value or better. Even Marner’s deal looks reasonable with how dominant he’s been in all situations this season after an awful first 5-6 weeks to start.
So you’re suggesting the Vast majority of an entire season showing dominant play both via eye test and underlying numbers is even close to a winger Gallup scoring a couple goals once?
Agreed. I was in the bridge him group for the majority of the szn but if you can get 6+ years at $4m give or take you take that and run and count your blessings a season from now onwards
No certainly not. One is playing in Europe and the other is not.
What does that have anything to do with Liljegren performing and exceeding expectations in the nhl today? Other than the fact they’re both/were leafs property.
