You know, your opinions are usually pretty sound and well thought-out. But then you resort to assclown comments like this and come across as a total fanboy. Scheifele is the more established player at this point in time. I don't see how anyone could objectively say he's inferior to Draisaitl right now.

I don't see how anyone could objectively say he's inferior to Draisaitl right now. Especially when he is using such an absurd argument like "Well at Draisaitl's age Scheif wasn't even in the league." Well I guess that means Sean Couturier is a better player than Scheifele too. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was dominant and putting up a ton of points. Then McDavid came back and things slowed down. He was great in the playoffs without McDavid too so I don't know where you get Draisaitl stuggles without McDavid. Is it because he didn't rip it up playing 3rd line centre to start the year with Benoit Pouliot and I don't even know who was the RW at the time. Draisaitl did as much for McDavid as the other way around so I wouldn't penalize the guy just because he played well with McDavid, the only other guy who really did that was Patrick Maroon. Lucic and Eberle failed spectacularly to play with McDavid. plus you are ignoring the other part of the arguement, that at the same age Scheifele wasn't even an NHL regular let alone a #1 centre. Not like he was playing with scrubs this season either. Maybe when the Jets win a playoff game you Jets fans can talk as much **** about how great your players are. Lolol.. Going to ad hominem, nice. You can't admit that you're obviously wrong and it's hilarious. Scheifele has more GOALS, ASSISTS, similar (but slightly better) Shot Generation, slightly better (but again similar) Shot Suppression. Drai DOES do better in faceoffs, though. Can't say being 10% more efficient in that area is that influential though. Did it take Scheifele 4 years to get where Drai got in 2 years? Yup! Does Drai have a higher ceiling than Scheif? Probably! Is Drai better now? Absolutely not.

Mcdavid+Drai+Nuge+LUCIC** = 33 million! that's INSANE. They better win the cup while Puljaarvi is on his ELC or else he's getting moved because lucic and RNH are untradeable with those boat anchor contracts.

If Eberle can be moved without retention then RNH can be moved without a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said RNH is riding shotgun with McJesus this year, right? I wanna see the kid put up 90+......he's still an elite offensive talent, but asking him to concentrate more on defense the last couple of years hindered his stats. If he's all in on offense by playing finisher for 97, he can still put up HUGE points... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not at the NHL level anymore.... if he ever was. The money is better in the KHL than the AHL so easy choice for a lot of those fringe guys that have the opportunity to go over there to play.
