what i've read kakko is like according to NA media & postersNA people have no idea. Kakko being called a sniper is faaaar from the truth yet every NA dude is calling him that. Shows that they are in fact they most biased people out there...
most NA players play 0 games against "adults" before entering the NHL...nonfactor.I am quite astonished that scouts don't seem to put much weight on the fact that Hughes has played zero games versus adults. I know, Kane and Gaudreau are doing great despite their size, but shouldn't this at least be a slight concern?
Don't get me wrong: I don't think Kakko is superior to him. In fact, I don't even have an opinion yet, because that said fact makes them impossible to compare in my eyes. I sincerely hope that both of them will play in the WHC so I can cast my vote on the poll.
most of those junior games are extremely low quality games with super sloppy defense and players playing only for themselves. coaching is non-existent and it's just breakaway after breakaway and giveaway after giveaway. very sloppy and selfish hockey.Watch a lot of USNTDP do you?
It's pretty relevant when someone won't stop whining about everyone else being "uneducated".most of those junior games are extremely low quality games with super sloppy defense and players playing only for themselves. coaching is non-existent and it's just breakaway after breakaway and giveaway after giveaway. very sloppy and selfish hockey.
that being said, with these skilled kiddos i dont think it matters much where they play. when ur good ur good.
The Devils will do the smart thing and draft the SUPERIOR player that is Hughes.
