Because youre acting like thinking a player should have been ranked higher is an issue when that same group that thought that is still here.Dach is a smarter player than Mailloux and was very good to the point many had him as a 1B to Suzuki's 1A. Then, the injury happened. Up to then, there wasn't any question about the price paid. This is all available to read in his thread, look at the posts from January 2022 to his injury.
Mailloux is not a top 15 pick, never was and wouldn't have been under this management or for the vast majority of NHL clubs. I don't know why this is getting pushback or why Dach, a completely unrelated player who was traded (and not drafted) during a completely different (and weak) draft, is being brought into the equation.
So, a board that overrates a player who produced the most as a winger with the top line convinced a bunch of people he would be a better centre than Suzuki despite being atrocious on the dot is a good enough sample ?Yeah and 90% of this board was saying he'll be better than Suzuki after his 1st season with the team before the injuries started to hit. There's no comparison to be made btw the two.
He is a decent AHLer but that is about it. He screws up too many chances like the last one where it took him 5 seconds to control the puck
I didn't think he touched it.Farrell turns & shoots it from the point practically, Dauphin is standing right in front of Murray and tips it in. Mailloux with the secondary assist.
only if it is serious or a goaltender.They don't stop the play when there's an injury?
