both are equally terrible.

Disagree. Mahura can move the puck and has offensive upside. Larsson is bad at everything and good at nothing.

Not when your ass is on the ice and your getting bullied in the defensive zone (in NHL) every single shift. I do think if he gets stronger and learns how to use his body better he could be a NHL defensemen like Djoos but he's no where near that based on what I saw last season in the AHL.

Mahura is trending towards being a tweener in my opinion. Pretty decent puck moving skills, but not to the point where you're going to want him running your top PP or would expect a ton of production. If you're someone who needs sheltering defensively, and doesn't produce stand out offense, you don't generally last long in the league.

Yeah I think at this point he's looking at a career as a spare part offensive sub-in for better injured players. Could change but he needs to change a lot about his game.

His saving grace could be some mid 20s man strength, still looked like a kid as of last season.

He could, he kind of turned a corner in San Diego last season so maybe he's just on a really slow curve. But none of that is to say that I'd put him above Benoit whose trajectory is much better.

Mahura falls down from contact more than any defensemen I may have ever seen in San Diego.

That's weird, because when I saw him, he was actually surprisingly physical. Did not fall down, but threw the opponents down
