Oh fine. 75%. Jeez you guys are all about semantics here.

He was a top flight prospect that took longer to develop, was written off by dummy's like you.. And has been in beast mode since.

Seriously man, you're taking a big talented kid drafted high, oozing with talent, that's still developing and trying to find some consistency health wise, and I've time wise in the NHL... To Clarke MacArthur. MacArthur was a hell of a steal, but he's an overachiever. He was drafted in the 4th round, and his hitting his prime with 20 goal seasons. That's his ceiling dude. He's soft as hell on the puck, and horrid defensively. He's a 3rd liner on any competitive NHL team. Mason Raymond might be an upgrade.

And the more you argue this, theore you come off as functionally (frank)ing retarted. You sound like you've never watched a hockey game in your life. Seriously man.. Let it go. I'm embarrassed for you.

................. talk to me when this guy produces then its debateable

If only he was an upgrade over him raymond is just meh now

Id like to say yes, though their less than 50 pt seasons does not correspond with your statement
- Mapleleafs_91

Well they did play for the two worst teams in the league, but you know, whatever.

Ya you could have got him late 2nd early 3rd round
- Jake_1723

from what some scouts have said it seems like he was a very solid pick.. i could be wrong but i dunno. They say he has top 4 potential and is a very smart defensemen.. maybe Leafs saw something in him they really liked? who knows

love gally like everyone else but a guy who didnt play at all is a big risk at #2 let alone
#3
- LEAFSfan28191

So what every pick is a risk you'll never really know until they play out

Well if you base it on point totals, the Leafs had 3 guys with more points than Gagner. So technically his % estimate would be accurate. Just sayin..

yeah but in your standpoint, gagner will never reach his full potential is a mere 50pt guy max 60 i would say.

What?

Brassard played less minutes per game then Bozak with nowhere near the same quality line-mates and had 6 less points. Congrats

Dont need to be a scout, just have to take a look at gagner or brassard for references.

and thats objectionable in a 2nd line C to you?

Probably kinda like flames pick this year?

i was actually going to say that in my post

"He will be the best player from the draft 10 years from now"

Gotta love Feaster

I almost pissed myself laughing when he made that pick.

- sanfordnson

No. I like gagne hes a good player but thats an "if" for you guys.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but can someone please tell me exactly what JvR has done/shown to indicate that he won't be much more than a 50-60 point winger at best?

I know the kid was drafted 2nd overall, but NOTHING I've seen from him has warranted the Flyers supposed asking price of Schenn+. Coupled with his injuries this season, no thanks!
