You're in disbelief over what? That someone correctly called you out? You were nitpicking weren't you? Considering that you didn't deny it in your last post I assume you agree.
Markus Granlund has outproduced Kero both at the AHL level and NHL level.
In disbelief that someone who never makes an actual argument but constantly nitpicks on the fringes of arguments could accuse someone else of nitpicking.
Yes, you called me out that in a throwaway sentence I called a player a $600k player instead of a $700k player, which changes nothing about my actual statement. Woe is me. I’ll probably have to stop posting here out of shame.
On Kero vs. Granlund :
- both are the same age and size. Both can play wing or C.
- Kero is unequivocally a better skater.
- Kero is unequivocally far better at faceoffs, something this organization values highly.
- Kero has scored 25 ES points/82 GP in the NHL from limited minutes in a not insignificant sample size. Granlund has scored at 22 ES points/82 GP, which includes a long stint with the Sedins. Over the past 2 seasons, he’s scored at 16 ES points/82 GP, which is utterly horrific (like, pretty close to the worst in the NHL for top-9 forwards kind of bad) considering his icetime and usage.
- Kero has generated better PK results in the NHL than Granlund, which isn’t surprising because Granlund is a complete catastrophe on the PK and should really never play there again.
- Kero has never played on the PP in the NHL, but really neither should Granlund.
- Kero has generated better defensive results in the NHL than Granlund from similar zone starts.
Guys like Granlund and Pouliot are minor-league turds who this hopeless organization tried to polish after their previous organizations realized they were minor-league turds, but have been completely terrible and a big part of the reason this team has been so poor, are still minor-league turds, but have become ‘established NHLers’ because the turd-polishing has lasted so long.
