Just wonder if O'sullivan really is good enough to give malkin a run for his money or calder i mean?
Sure he has a chance. Frankly Malkin hasn't proven squat yet. He may get 70 points, he may get 40. Point is people need to slow down on the overhyping of players.
We are excited. O' Sullivan will probably push Frolov down to the second line if he has any sucess in the pre-season.I bet that LA Kings fans are excited to have a potential Luc Robitaille on the roster, right after Luc retired. That being said, when the Russian transfer agreement isn't signed its a very easy question to answer.
btw On line which line (likely) will O'Sullivan play?
He might be a finalist...but unless Malkin isn't here for a good 65 games I'm saying no.
Mind you I've always found O'Sullivan to be overrated around here. If he would have been drafted where he should have been he wouldn't have nearly the talk he does. Always made me laugh how guys like Latendresse go from ungodly overrated to ungodly "underrated" according to this place because they fall 20 draft spots.
If O'Sullivan was drafted "where he should have been" he would have went top ten or so in a strong draft year-he's that talented. I think a player of that ilk deserves some ink. As for whether he has a chance to win the Calder, I think he does if he gets top six ice time with the Kings. Of course Malkin should be considered the favorite but I don't think the competition is a one horse show like some Pens' fans like to make it.
Top ten is pushing it. That year was ridiculous in talent, i'd say Top 15, top 20 easily.

Make room, yeah. Most people had him around 15-25 though. When someone goes below where they're supposed to they somehow become more valuable around here than players picked where they should go.
O'Sullivan, Latendresse, Schremp, Hudler...all are prominant victims of this. Mind you Schremp may actually deserve the extra hype...he was given a raw deal his draft year.
O'Sullivan was a consensus top ten pick his draft year, easily. Most had him falling at most to 15-25.
O'Sullivan is a better player then all of the aforementioned as well.

How is O'Sullivan a potential Luc Robitaille, unless you mean a calder winner? Otherwise, they don't really compare at all.
