I know, i just think when its all said and done Ebs will be the better OVERALL player.. just my opinion though, dont have to agree with me

i do agree with you, i think Eberle is the real deal.

kessel is a complimentary player, whereas Eberle LOOKS to be like more of a go to guy 2 ways.

same ? marks any young player has...just like gardiner, and many other youngins...

will they have it every year? once people know they are good, and they get covered better and go vs better lines from other teams will they still have the jump/creativity...etc.

22 year old with a resume like his, I think it safe to say he's not gonna fall off the map.

And just watching him... He's a flat out awesome hockey player.

Yes sir.

Nobody has a clue how good or bad Schultz is going to be.

I hope he craps the bed so bad they have to throw out the mattress

Most teams seemed to think he was pretty good.

Up to him now to bring the goods.

If it was up to him he would have already been making millions.

as mentioned above, multiple times, i think hes the real deal and id imagine he will shine.

things can change, injury's, a horrible season can really shake up a youngster. we've all seen it..but im with you, odds are the kid will be a gem. i hope hes flourishing come 2014 so we can win another olypmic gold

Yes sir.

you're supposed to argue back saying kessel is better

This seems to be the general consensus from the losers of the 'Schultz Sweeps'

Good post

well he can make millions and has a good chance at winning a cup in a few years.. what he did to Anaheim was wrong but his choice was for the better of his career

ya i can imagine what they would say if he came to Toronto..

I kinda do to. Not because he went to Edmonton (cause I love the Oil) but because he's an arrogant sh!t who left Anaheim with nothing.

This doesn't make sense.
- robin_steele264

Duh, it makes millions

We will let the fans across Canada decide who's better.


Either way, I wouldn't trade Ebs for Kessel.
- robin_steele264

I don't blame you.

That's a educated guess

I'd be interested to hear the whole story of what went down.


Easy to judge from a distance.

Leafs offer for Getzlaf! Grabovski, Kulemin, 1st rounder for Getzlaf, i got more than 12 texts from various sources saying this is the offer

This is a sign and trade

It'll take more than this

Ducks fans were wishing career ending injuries on him.

dont do it burke.

I dont know about you guys...but listening to Luongos interview again...he sounds like he would almost rather go to Toronto...

"I would love to play in a hockey market, where the rink is full and rocking...and the fanbase is passionate about their team..."

followed by

"I would also enjoy playing in a place like Florida where you can sit and eat a meal in peace with your family...but as a player you want to be playing in a big market..."


- noename09

Did they interview his wife shortly after?

dont do it burke.
- big_dion

If it's just those three why wouldn't you?

This doesn't make sense.
- robin_steele264

You said it was up to him... but I disagree with that. There is one thing at play here that could be missing from this kid and it's called talent. Meaning... Mr. Schultz can want to be a pro as much as he possibly could want something, work as hard as possible and still not make. Therefore it's not up to him. It will be what it will be.
