Defense has been a bit lacking but by no means not cup worthy.
They just simply choke every year.
Ovechkin has been a choker his whole career everywhere he goes and this is the guy who they all look up to.
>>69523284
If ovechkin is a choker then so is backstrom. He's overrated as fuck if you ask me.
Remind me again how Eetu Tuulola slipped that far?
He should have been a 2nd rounder easily.
Potential is trough the roof and floor is still probably a servicable 4th liner with some scoring upside.
He had a bad season because of injury problems and playing for the craptastic HPK but it seems like a major overreaction to let him slip to 156th. Just a year ago he was going to go in the 1st round.
Nice to see Eeli Tolvanen is already 6'0. I was worried about his size couple of years ago but he had a nice growth spurt.
This is the next Laine in terms of goalscoring potential, very different style but scores at will just like Laine.
He's going to go 2nd or 3rd overall.
>>69523450
Finnish pro scout? Is that you?
>>69523450
Laine plays similar to Ovechkin and Tolvanen plays more like Tarasenko
>>69523515
Tolvanen is much more skilled than Tarasenko but not nearly as much of a bull physically.
Tarasenko plays like Ovechkin more than Laine does.
Tolvanen reminds me more of Patty Kane, just bigger. He has the wheels and unreal bag of tricks. Then again Gilbert Brule was like that too in juniors.
>>69523515
Right now Laine plays like a young Luc Robitaille.
I hope he gains another step in his acceleration. Then he can play like Ovechkin.
Worth noting Ovechkin was 20 in his rookie season and he wasn't at Laine's level when he was 17-18 years old.
I don't expect Laine to score 60 goals in his rookie season simply because he is going to be 18 years old and no one has been even close to doing it as an 18 year old.
He is going to score 60 goals in his 2nd or 3rd season.
>>69523343
How is it that every time they're supposed to reach the final they get btfo by an amazing goaltender
>>69523732
>amazing goaltender
There's your problem. But Ovi's getting older, so Washington's time to win is now, or they're not gonna get much of Ovechkin's help.
>>69523694
Accurate, hopefully he gets traded to a team where that can happen
>>69523694
>60 goals
>Modern NHL
Funny joke idiot. Ovie doesn't do 60 and he is, goals adjusted, the best pure scorer to ever play the game.
post your top underrated or undermentioned player in the league.
Bergeron was a close second for me
>>69524127

This meme needs to end. In the dead puck era we saw guys like Teemu Selänne, Pavel Bure and even Peter Bondra score 50 goals every year. It was much harder to score back then, never mind staying healthy enough to do it.
Headshots were called amazing hits, knee on knee was called "being gritty" and water skiing was called strong defensive play.
You can't do that these days.
>>69524414
And they still played against goalies and defensemen that sucked dick. The skill level of the average player that Ovie plays against now a days is WAY higher than 90% of the NHL back when those guys played. Our modern 3rd and 2nd line players would have been legends back then.
>>69524414
Bondra scored fifty only twice in his whole career

>>69524547
Dumb aussie cunt at least read the conversation
>>69524547
And he did it on the greatest line in the post lockout era
>>69524459
>And they still played against goalies and defensemen that sucked dick
Are you fucking stupid? The greatest defensemen and goalies in history played in that exact era.
>>69524607
>Any defensemen at that time but Chelios and Lidstrom
>Good
>He considers Scott "I try to murder people" Niedermeyer a "hockey" player
>He's this much of a brain washed cuck
The top defensemen of this era are FAR better with the exceptions of the literal legends like Lidstrom.
>>69524459
There is no one in the league today that could hold the jock strap of guys like Hasek, Roy, Brodeur, CuJo, Kipper, Stevens, Bourque, Lidström, MacInnis, Leetch etc. All in their primes.
Your argument is retarded.
>>69524662
Brodeur, Cujo, and Kipper are all overrated memes.
Kipper doesn't even have a cup lel. He belongs, at the very best, in the "Hall of Very Good".
CuJo is a straight up meme. There's a reason he was passed around and used by so many teams just like your mother lel.
Stevens is a murderer in skates.
>MacInnis

>>69524523
>It was much harder to score back then, never mind staying healthy enough to do it.
Just because Ovie gets to play in the pussified version of the NHL, it doesn't make him the greatest goalscorer of all time. Top 10 sure, greatest? Absolutely not.

>>69524745
I was quoting the part you missed in your quote.
I didn't say they all did it every year but atleast they matched what Ovie did this past season.
Selanne and Bure out played his last season multiple times in an era where it was much harder to score than today.

Hmmm
I don't see 50 goals every year here either
I only see three years
>>69524892
Well surely that must mean Bure did it then since goalies didn't even STOP the puck back when he played, right?
>>69524867
I count 3, including a 76 goal campaign + 7 40+ goal seasons.
Not bad for a guy with 2 reconstructed knees.
>>69524912

Holy fucking cucks lel. Kariya carried his autistic ass stupid. It's not a coincadince he turned to shit after Paul left.

That's the exact opposite of what happened. You need to stop smoking that nigger weed and get your facts straight.
>>69524961
>His "hero" got outplayed and literally cucked by his superior canadian teammate
Pottery lmao
>>69524961
He's right though
Kariya (a mediocre Canadian talent) was head and shoulders about shitlanne and carried him
>>69524215
>prime Laine scores 60
>>69524982
Kariya finished ahead of Selanne exactly one time in their so called dynamic duo years. Selänne out peaked him, had the better prime and better career. It's not even close.
>>69525017
Except that never happened.

>>69523694
There is no way laine scores 60 goals that early
>>69525586
There is no way he scores 60 period. He simply doesnt have the tools that ovechkin does. This finnish guy is a delusional retard
>>69525586
I would be surprised if Laine even scored 40 at any point in his career. I'm not bashing the guy but it's not something many can do.
Does anyone remember the one time that Montreal traded Subban for a 30 year old defenseman with 12 years left on his contract? hahaha! good times.

being that matthews comes from a european league and was considered a euro skater in his draft year does he fall under the nhl-iihf draft rules? if so needs to be signed by the 15th

And these are just the D men out of Finland drafted top 12 in 2017.
Vaakanainen is going to be real special. I know how people like to compare good prospects to Lidström but Vaakanainen is the only one I've seen who looks just like him. Calm, poised, cheat stick, great fitness, amazing iq and no weaknessess whatsoever. He basicly has everything that made Lidström what he was.

What a time to be alive. We've never had a golden generation before.
>>69536920

>>69536714
oh ok time zone police
>hoc ded
>>69536943
Well we just won 2 WJC golds, so it definitely is a golden generation. A tiny country like Finland will eventually sink back to being shit due to tiny talent pool but right now we're pumping some real shit in the draft every year. This is nice. We had a decade long drought pre Mikael Granlund. I really felt like stabbing my face.
>>69536948

>>69537148
Only played few games in the NHL in the twilight of his career, so not really relevant in this list.

Back in the day Social Democrates party forced upon all Finnish youth sports this thing called Nuori Suomi.
Nuori Suomi means Young Finland, their idea was that everyone plays. Sounds nice right?
Basicly it meant that no real pro athlete was developed in the times of that lunacy. Now that it's gone the coaches can finally focus on the kids who are going to have a career in sports.
>>69537291
This thing costed Finland a full generation of athletes, not just hockey players.
>>69537088
where is A H O
>>69537315
There has been about few hundred Finns in the NHL, Aho is not among them yet.
>>69537291
Oh, yeah, I'm familiar with that. See post:
>>69537039
Didn't know Ketola was involved in getting rid of it, tho. Thought you were talking about some older political interference.
By the standards of European socialist parties, the SD aren't completely bad (basically still mostly being labor-socialists rather than full-on multiculti progressives), but did anyone ever use Nuori-Suomi against them as a political weapon? Basically just saying "these are the kinds of loser policies they want to inflict on the country"?
>>69537088
>forgot the only 3 time Selke winning winger in hockey history
why does finlan like hokki so much more than sverige and norge?
>>69536665
I skimmed through the 2013 agreement and I didn't see such a thing.
>>69537372
In Finland the Hockey union is a big deal, probably bigger in numbers than any political party. Ketola is a big guy with huge respect in it. They forced it to stop and then it just died away. Also the SDP suffered major lossess of popularity this past decade, so they don't really get to say shit these days.
>>69537407
We are closer to Russia than Sweden and more northern. Norway is basicly a string of mountains, how the fuck are you going to play pond hockey there?
Sweden and especially Finland have shit tons of lakes. That's where it starts.
>>69537407
I don't think we like hockey much more than Swedes do as far as ethnic Swedes go.
Their population is 50% foreign and hockey is probably not the other halfs game.
>>69537270

A source told Sportsnet that Matt Pfeffer, who was hired as an analytics consultant at the beginning of the 2015-16 season, made an impassioned and elaborate presentation to management to dissuade them from following through on this trade.
Ignoring Pfeffer’s advice only served to reinforce the notion that Bergevin was following different criteria in his evaluation of both players, said the source, who also suggested Pfeffer’s vehemence on the matter might have ultimately cost him the job (he was told on Wednesday that his contract won’t be renewed). The Canadiens would not comment on why they aren’t renewing his contract, but they did say that they are looking into other analytics solutions.

Hes just another stereotypical analytics guy. It seems to be old school hockey guys or guys like this. You don't necessarily need to have a comprehensive background in hockey to be a good GM.
Ok fellas, let's compare 2 Atlantic Division teams who are on a similar rebuild schedule and compare the core that each will build around (not all of these are fair comparisons but it'll do). LEAFS VS. SABRES:
#1 C Prospect:
>Eichel Vs. Matthews
Skilled Wingers
>A. Nylander Vs. W. Nylander
>Reinhart Vs. Marner
#1 D
>Risto Vs. Rielly
Current C - Future #2
>O'Reilly Vs. Kadri
Power Winger
>E. Kane Vs. JVR
Starting Goaltender
>Lehner Vs. Andersen
Who is better now and in the future? I'll post mine after.
>>69541185
Lawyers make best GM's they don't think they know shit, so they hire people around them to know shit for them and they always get the best contracts.
>>69541230
Eichel > Matthews
A. Nylander < W. Nylander
Reinhart <. Marner
Risto < Rielly
O'Reilly > Kadri
E. Kane <. JVR
Lehner > Andersen
>>69540688
He is amazingly unfunny. Probably for the good really, no need to be under the spotlight off the ice too.
>>69541230
Buffalel
Why do NA hockey players come up with the lamest nicknames? They're all something like
>Hallsy
>Kaner
>>69541253
I agree except for Lehner and Ristolainen. I would argue Rielly and Ristolainen are basically even. Lehner and Freddy are similar too based on the fact Lehner can't stay healthy.
>>69541230
Buffalel will be worse simply because they bought into the Bylsma is a good coach meme.
>>69541230
Eichel>=Matthews
A Nylander<<W Nulander
Risto=Reilly
ROR>>>Kadri
Kane>JVR pending Kane ever get's his shit together
Lehner<Andersen
I think Risto is going to pull away as the better player. With Eichel and Matthews it's impossible to say who's going to be better but Eichel has certainly proved he can be a star.
When you add the group around them, guys like Bogo, Girgs, Okposo, Gorges, Kulikov etc. in the mix I think it's safe to say Buffalo is four steps ahead.
I also like how you matched A. Nylander vs his brother instead of Reinhart vs W Nylander.
Leafs are a long way from playoffs. Buffalo is in the mix already and only getting better.
>>69541378
Basically this. The leafs are in the same situation Buffalo was in before lastyear maybe a bit further back. I would say the sabres could potentially grab a playoff spot while the laffs will more than likely finish 22-28th in the league.

Story behind it was that he ordered in starbucks or somewhere where they call your name when your order is ready and he just didn't feel like explaining "Jyrki" to them so he said his name was Kevin. Then a teammate heard he picked up his order as Kevin and you know the rest. You can see Dallas players calling him Kevin in his instagram comments.

TOI: top 6 among forwards, 42 GP; TOI/G: top 6 among forwards, min 42 gp. Goals: 20, Assists : 35, Points: 60, +/- top 3 among F, member of post season rookie team, ASG, ASG MVP
it's pretty retarded that Lou won't just get it done, it's just the schedule A bonuses that the team has to take care of. i can only see Matthews possibly achieving the two TOI bonuses - and he has a shot at the goals. but that's pretty much it.

This is Jesse Puljujarvi, he was drafted 4th overall by the Edmonton Oilers and is looking forward to playing with Connor McDavid.

Only an autismo would be excited to start their career in Edmonton

Pulju's pecks look strong in that pic where he's behind Virtanen.
