Honestly, what do you want? Anytime someone posts a list with Nylander ranked high, you criticize it. When they explain their reasoning, you just say they're biased in a condescending manner.
Againt with the victim card
I am not after you, but after all the leaf shenaniganz and ruining of all threads this past summer, there is some recentment towards the heaps of casual Toronto fans, whos only hockey knowledge comes from TO media, and we all know they aint objctive.
Oh give me a break.... There are plenty of posters (some Jets fans) who have put Ehlers at 2-3 and Nylander at 8-10 and you haven't said a thing about that.
You're clearly not going to listen to reason regarding Nylander, you have made that beyond obvious.
Here's why I ranked Nylander 2nd:
I believe the Ekblad is the best player in the draft and then there is a 2nd tier of Nylander, Ehlers, Larkin and Bennett. I think all 4 of them are close and it's truly personal preference.
I prefer Nylander because I believe he will be an elite #1C in the NHL. I have watched Nylander play in Sweden and in the AHL and if you actually watch him you can see just how off the charts his skill is.
I ranked him higher than Ehlers because I think Ehlers will be a #1W and I just prefer a #1C.
I rated him higher than Larkin because I think he has a higher ceiling and will be the better player 5-6 years from now.
Lastly, him and Bennett are really close for me. They were the 2 players I wanted the Leafs to get on draft day, but didn't think either would fall. Luckily Nylander did. The thing is they are also two very different players and bring different skill sets. They're both future stars and I rated Nylander higher because I think he has higher natural offensive talent.
I think you need to give me a break dude
I like Nylander, and have complemented him often.
this all started because of the Willie pumping a few months ago, now all the reasons used to support why people ranked him high are moot, since the other players are at a higher level and producing. then you guys just disregard those reasons and come up with new ones.
you honestly think I am just after you guys and Nylander, im not!
YOU clearly wont listen to why so many people in herr are commenting og leafs rankings, and it has nothing to so with you guys being leafs.
I havent seen to many Jets put Ehlers 2nd and nor would I.
This is not about Ehlers or Larkin, but Nylander.. And how have I made that obvious? I have seen very, VERY few reasonable arguments to support Nylander, so how on earth can you make that claim?
You are one of the first to give a somewhat useable reasoning, and I like that, that was all I asked.
So please stop with the personalization and victimization.
But lets leave it at that, I doubt we would agree on alot of things anyway!
