JT is the way better player for the first five years at least is my guess, plays with edge, plays center, and won't dissappear at playoff time. JT was killer in the Rangers run years ago. It's not just points, it's being tough to play against even if you aren't putting up points. We'll need that physicality for the playoffs. Bratt cannot match that aspect of playoff strength. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a big difference between Bratt being physical (which he’s not, so I’d seriously question who is tracking those stats. Garbage in = garbage out) and a heavy guy being physical are night and day. The Devils are morons for wasting a huge contract on Bratt. Very similar to the waste the Gabs just made on Mighty Mouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t understand the slagging of smaller players. Plenty of them in the league who are proficient in their roles. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lock Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 7 minutes ago, Hairy Kneel said: Size mattered in the playoffs What would really be handy actually would be a comparison of each team and incumbent over the past 10 years based on size and seeing if the winning team was actually bigger than the incumbent team. Otherwise, just basing it on 1 playoffs is rather meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re going to be judgemental and discount that aspect then your opinion is moot because teams do require performers to carry them that far.

KirkSave Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Overall I like Bratt. He plays very well with Hughes and reminds me of a lesser Kucherov, in the right spots at the right time, is a step ahead of the D and can barry the chances. Now if we can figure out a way to be effective and impactful in the playoffs, good for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because z Bratt is small but because he’s a suckaroo. He plays small and out on the perimeter. He’s a friggin’ plsyer on another team! Why in the heck should we Canuck fans like him? He’s small, soft, and scared. He’s a joke. Devilis way overpaid. Not as bad as the Caufield overpay but close. #hatesllotherclubs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This playoffs, Bratt averaged just about the same amount of hits as Stone, Eichel, and Lundell. The playoff isn’t just all about physicality. You need a balance of skill, durability, and physicality to be successful in the playoffs. Edited June 16, 2023 by shiznak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap team in a crap city. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
