Half the “talk” is how overrated he is lol.Overrated with how much talk there is in the media/forums about a 2nd line player who plays a 1 dimensional game.
Look at this poll and posts to go against what you are saying.

Suzuki is the next Bergeron….We talking about Zegras or Suzuki ? Neither one defends all that well so yah ..
Suzuki is the next Bergeron….
Scratch that the current Bergeron
Are you still mad about people thinking Hutson won’t live up to the hype ?
Bigot? Really ? Maybe I missed a comment ..Mad? Hum no.
I just have a thing for manipulative bigots who are artists at changing narratives.

Stive that tshirt starting to get to your brainHabs fan voting Zegras but it's close.
Suzuki is so overrated defensively by Habs fans it's not even funny. He's fine on 5v5 but he's a tire fire on the PK. He's got a long way to go to even catch Plekanec. (speaking purely defensively, he's surpassed Plekanec offensively already)
Lmao what? Defensive ability in shorthanded situations is absolutely a valued quality. I'm not gonna act like ES defending isn't very important but acting like PK defending is irrelevant is downright silly.Stive that tshirt starting to get to your brain
Plekanec was one of the best defensive player of his era, its not really a fair standard. When we talk about defensive ability nobody cares about PK, its ES that matters.
It is, but they should be viewed separately. Pk specialist exist because it is an entirely different game and because it is not as valuable as ES play.Lmao what?

Got to be fair to Suzuki here, the first season he had 41 in 71 during a season cut short by the start of COVID and the second year of 41 for Suzuki was in the shortened 56 games season which over a full 82 game season would be 60. So not as big of a difference.at the same age
Zegras put up 61, 65 to Suzukis 41, 41.
I think zegras has the higher potential, right now they are pretty close…. The poll doesn’t really say this year or going forward…. So assuming it’s going forward , zegras pretty comfortably…. This year prob debatable
What? So being a top notch 2-way center like ohh say Bergeron is not desirable? A center that plays in all situations is not something a team would want?It is, but they should be viewed separately. Pk specialist exist because it is an entirely different game and because it is not as valuable as ES play.
I don't know if he can become the next Bergeron but he can become a great 2-way center that plays in all situations who during his best years might even get his share of Selke votes.Suzuki is the next Bergeron….

I have no idea how you understood that from my post, absolutely none.What? So being a top notch 2-way center like ohh say Bergeron is not desirable? A center that plays in all situations is not something a team would want?

Its only good because of the anti habs biasYou know it's a good poll when people are arguing as much as this lol. Well done.
2 good players, really comes down to preference in style.
What has he shown so far defensively to be even in the same book let alone sentence as Bergeron ? He’s an average to below average center defensively. If he has that upside so do like 100 other current players . He’s nothing special at all . I stand behind my vanilla comment . Decent at a bunch of stuff , master of none.What?

Lol it’s only close cause there are much more habs fans than ducks fan
Haha I think you’re taking things too serious…. Bigot huh nice choice of words
Bigot? Really ? Maybe I missed a comment ..
it’s actually my first job… please stop making things upI mean, it's the dude second job (if he has one to begin with) to pollute threads involving the habs organization or fanbase. Totally fitting, in a dramatic way I can agree

Did you find Bergeron to be vanilla?
Wait, are Habs fans still comparing Suzuki to Bergeron?
Damn. Was it JC Lajoie who first made this loony comp?
