  1. Is it just me or is Brock Boeser the 2nd best player to come out of the 2014 / 2015 / 2016 / 2017 drafts combined? Second to McDavid

     

    Heck you can even go back to 2013, Mackinonn wasn't even half the player Brock is at 20 years old. 

     

    Thanks JB  :wub:

      McDavid, Matthews and Eichel are probably the only players in the past few drafts I would take over Boeser. Maybe Draisaitl... The only reasons I say is cause they play center. Also Boeser > Laine

      i really think a baseball approach needs to be take initially to assessing nhl players

       

      some start out very nicely ala brock

      then the league adjusts and they look less nice

      some of the better players adjust and again establish their very nice look

      some do not do as well after their initial burst

       

      brock has some 50 games under his belt

      his goal scoring has slowed noticeably

      let's revisit this at season's end

      or perhaps next year at this time

       

      i mean .. look at bo last year

      very fine start to his season

      very unproductive finish

      the better teams get serious in the 2nd half

      and key on all the better players

      I’m on board with @Baer.  I’d take Matthews and McDavid then Brock would be really close with Eichel.  It depends on salary too.  McDavid’s Cap hit lowers (to me) his value to a team’s potential to win.  Eichel at 10 mil is a lot.  If Matthews comes in at McDavid numbers that’s a negative for him too.  We will see where Brock comes in dollar wise.  Paying too much for one guy, can really damage a team’s winning.
