A guy who hits and fights and has no hands?
- Two_For_Truth


hes a powerforward in the mold of lucic. must you criticize everything? Biggs had 53 points in 60 games with Oshawa this year. Lucic in his final year in the WHL had 68 in 70. biggs is 6'3 224lb, lucic 6'4 220lb. very comparable. If they didnt have the 10 fight rule in the OHL, Biggs Pims would be a lot higher. the games I have watched him play he has been throwing the body.

Ok, in his last 79 gp he has 25 goals and 22 assists, better?

Seriously, don't waste my time by twisting my words or by talking to me about sample sizes. I have no patience for it anymore.....not from you or anyone. Is JVR a powerforward, no. Is he a big forward producing better numbers than he was at 22, yes. Is there a window for him to get better and mature? Yes. So what's the problem? He's got one point in 7 gp, that's concerning, I agree, but overall, if I was grading him on this season, I'd say he's doing what I hoped and better than I expected. Most of the Leafs are save for Grabovski and Gardiner. And JVR's got time to get better, which is what the whole concept of going young is all about.

That was a great team, and a great #1 line, I thought Repik would turn out to be a great player. Cody Franson and Jonathan Blum were awesome too for that team.

Lucic did it a year younger, did better and accomplished more.

If you're expecting Biggs to be like Lucic, expect to be disappointed.

Pretty sure Lucic was the captain of that team though or was in line to be captain but then made the Bruins team and Memorial Cup MVP.

Usually we don't go at it, and its probably my fault for engaging his quotes directly and only his quotes directly. I'm having a pissy day, so my patience is poop right now. Either way, whatev, I'm out today.

im not expecting the points, but the style will be similar. not to mention lucic had played a couple years already in the whl, biggs barely played last year in the NCAA cause it was his first year.

Then why bother compare him to Lucic? Part of the style is the ability to score.

That was his mistake for wasting his time in the NCAA in the first place.

not a chance...as I've said black is white - white is black

he has no clue about what you are even talking about...just looks at stats and that's sometimes.

cheers...gotta get ready to watch the smurfs...I can't go bash them if I don't at least watch some games.

Has potential to be a 3rd line winger in the NHL...Likely a 4th liner..

Pretty much exactly as spectacular as Lucic appeared to be before he ever played an NHL game.

He was a definite monster in that tournament. I can't recall if he was captain, Blum was the captain after Lucic et all left. It was great team.

I have to say though, I'm really really shocked about Repik never clicking in the NHL, or Blum taking so long to click in the NHL, yet Lucic made the jump. Show's a lot can happen from the age of 18-20.
