Ok this topic is kind of scattered between two threads.
So let's get at it, is hype a primary reason why Tavares is deemed so far above Schroeder?
Schroeder was really good in the WJC last year as a 16 year old, he's 17 and is USA's best player.
Tavares was pretty good last year, but has been a PP specialist in his two years, but i'd call him Canadas best player.
Schroeder is a great skater, Tavares has better size and a longer reach.
But I think JT is a bit soft, I haven't seen this guy hit anyone yet, with his size he should atleast try and lay the body once in a while yes?
