I'm a huge Karlsson fan, then again I don't really watch all them charts so I can't say.

Sens have good players, others I like a whole lot less but clearly, as a team, there are improvements to be made.

So am I...except I don't think he's the best in the league...maybe offensively he's up there but all around...there's a couple other guys I'd take first...regardless of what HERO chart tries to tell us.

To me, It's his overall skillset, the guy has the size, the speed, he can switch gears, smooth skating, a great shot... he has it all.... which makes his upside more interesting than a guy like Hoffman, who, in my opinion, won't improve much on what we are seeing today.

Hoffman is 26 years old and entering his prime years, he's a good player but Galchenyuk is already better than him at 22.

Stupid arguments is what you say everyday, anyday..


So if I use your argument, Buffalo should trade Eichel 1v1 vs Jagr no problem, he is way better.

Yeah I'm absolutely saying that if a player is currently better or currently producing more than another player he clearly has a higher overall value.

Yakupov is technically better given what he has to play with.
- Alexzanki


He has been given plenty of chances in Edmonton... He just sucks.

Why are you all comparing Galchenyuk and Hoffman instead of, I dunno, dozens of other players that make way more sense as comparables?
- BINGO!

Because I'm in here stirring the pot creating discussion. Some people like Scabeh can have a debate while others like nvrsoft and quick wtf get butthurt.

Karlsson is the best defenseman in the NHL and it's not close.

The Senators are a poopty hockey team striving to sneak into the playoffs every year because their owner is cheap as hell.

- BINGO!

But those are different things entirely. People from Florida can talk and have a discussion even if they don't know the specifics.

Cats are physically incapable of human speech. It's ridiculous, sir, and I won't stand for it.

yeah considering the Bolts have won a cup and have been contenders for the last 4 of 5 years while the Panthers won their division last season it sure is clear that people in Florida know nothing about hockey
