Jonathan Drouin vs William Nylander

[Hostile Offer]

Try reading what I actually posted. What I'm claiming is trying to be educated by a Leaf hater about a Leaf player I watch using data with no context is humorous.

Who the **** said anything about "justifying a vote"? People can vote for whoever they want.

You voted for Nylander and that was responded by stats pointing out why you shouldn't. You go on and rant about people hating on the Leafs and how they don't watch enough Nylander. The context here is not just about Nylander, it's Nylander versus Drouin.

The bolded is the only accurate thing you've posted. The rest is you making a story.

I cant wait for the leafs and habs to get back to some playoffs hockey against each other, hfboard will go down in flames.

Drouin 10 pts in 11 games playing with..........
Nylander 8 pts in 13 games playing with .......
You fill in the blanks and let us know who plays with better linemates and why that player isn't producing as much as the other.

[ole ole]

Why bother?

Just shows how far from reality some leaf fans are. I suspect its alot of people that are new to hockey.

Well, this thread is a total cesspool

 

[Sasso09]

Extremely close but i personally like Drouin more and he's cheaper.

Well at least most votes got it right.

Leafs fan saying Drouin. If he puts it altogether, he has a higher ceiling than Nylander. It's close though.

Until Drouin actually has a single season better than Nylander, this is Nylander. He's even got one extra season in the books and still hasn't had a season as good as Willy.

He literally outscored Nylander last season.

Did last year not happen or are Leafs fans trying to just completely forget about the past?

Nylander had a subpar season last year, but Drouin still hasnt topped what Nylander showed as a rookie amd sophomore.

Has Drouin played with Matthews?

Drouin had his own advantages - namely noticeably more average icetime per game.

 

[The Great Weal]

Drouin had his own advantages - namely noticeably more average icetime per game.

Nylander in his first season(unless you want to count his 22 game stint a season) averaged 16 minutes of ice time while Drouin averaged 13 minutes in his first year.

By more average ice time per game, do you mean the average of 4 more seconds per game he gets.
Man that is some huge advantage.
Drouin-Career Average ice time-----16.19
Nylander-Career Average ice time---16.15
I guess it's back to the drawing board looking for more excuses.

I'm talking having a better season than Nylander's best seasons, but I can see how my post could be read the way you answered.

It's interesting that you look at career results for TOI comparisons, but only this year and last year for points results...then you call it out as "excuses".

They are pretty close. If I am taking in total careers (including international play), I think Nylander is the better player and has a higher ceiling...but I would say Drouin has faced more adversity with the whole Tampa situation, so his potential could be getting underrated.

I would trade either for Sergachev, in a heartbeat.

OP clearly states who you're taking forward - not who had a better season 2 years ago.
