what?? Wright is the consensus #1 pick, and you say its doubtful that he'll do what a guy who was ranked around 10th in his draft year will do now. How does that make any sense? Zegras only had 13 pts in 24 games last season, and broke out after about 10 games this season.How on Earth is Wright winning this? Zegras has the higher floor and the higher ceiling...
Zegras has something like 25 points in his last 24 games. I think it's doubtful Wright ever reaches the level Zegras is today. There are still tons of question marks around his ability to transition to the NHL, and his play in the OHL has left a lot to be desired.
Draft position literally means nothing. Zegras has already proven to be a 1st overall caliber player, and there's a good bet he'd go 1st in a redraft. Also Zegras is only 20, not 21.what??

I mean, the kid is turning 18 in 2 weeks while Zegras will be 22 in 3 months! You honestly dont think Wright can adapt as Zegras has after 35+ games in the NHL at age 21/22? really, man?
just an odd take.
I take Wright over Zegras every day. Not many players like Shane Wright come around often. I look at just draft positions from Zegras draft and he wasn't on Jack Hughes level. I put Shane Wright ahead of Jack Hughes at around the same age.How on Earth is Wright winning this? Zegras has the higher floor and the higher ceiling...

Why does it matter when Zegras was drafted?I take Wright over Zegras every day. Not many players like Shane Wright come around often. I look at just draft positions from Zegras draft and he wasn't on Jack Hughes level. I put Shane Wright ahead of Jack Hughes at around the same age.
I take Wright over any prospect drafted since Matthews and the best player to come out of the GTA since McDavid.
Its not a dumb way to evaluate players. I am looking at where Wright is compared to where Zegras was at that age level. Wright is 17 and Zegras is twenty. it is quite reasonable to compare draft positions and where Wright was at the same time Zegras was. I can't compare Wright to a 20 year old Zegras. If I said that Wright is going to be better than Zegras at 20, what would your response be?Why does it matter when Zegras was drafted?
What a dumb way to evaluate young players.
It is a dumb way to look at it, because players don't develop at the same rate. Wright had arguably a better 15 year old season than McDavid, but he's obviously not as good at 17.Its not a dumb way to evaluate players.

Yet Judging Zegras and wright off of 25 games isn't?
This I can't believe my eyes lmfao, do people see not only his on ice amazing play but also the publicity and personality the kid has. He's all you want in a player.Lmao Zegras and it's not even close.
Lol that's what I'm saying. Like, it's not even remotely close. I'm flabbergasted by the results thus far, but I guess HF is always going to favor the mystery box.Lmao Zegras and it's not even close.
Who is to say that Wright cannot do the same? ANd Wright was nowhere close to what McDavid was at 15It is a dumb way to look at it, because players don't develop at the same rate. Wright had arguably a better 15 year old season than McDavid, but he's obviously not as good at 17.
I guess you'd take Wright over Draisaitl or Kucherov? Because neither of those guys went 1st overall.
If people knew how Zegras was going to develop, he probably goes 1st in a redraft.
Zegras is going to be a fine two-way center.What's Wright's upside offensively? I think there is some question there. He does have all the makings of a fine two-way center but he lacks Zegras' top end skill.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.This I can't believe my eyes lmfao, do people see not only his on ice amazing play but also the publicity and personality the kid has. He's all you want in a player.
