Confirmed with Link: Brady Tkachuk - The decider: signs 3 year ELC

[stempniaksen]

So, did the kid sign?

John Buccigross is a pretty legit NCAA source and Matthew Tkachuk re-tweeted Bucci's tweet, so you'd think it's as close to official as possible. That being said, I haven't seen anything from the team yet (they could have been waiting to drop this on a Monday though).

Prime Todd Bertuzzi

Terrible comparison. I'd go with a bigger Claude Lemieux.

Terrible comparison? Both have alot of similarities including being a left handed shot, high level puck skill, and play making ability for a big man while having an edge. Lemieux was not a playmaker, I am not going to say its a terrible comparison because I am not an arrogant prick but relative to my Bertuzzi comparison its not very good.

Lemieux was also a coward and a big time consistent cheap shot artist. While what Bertuzzi did was horrible it was because he was trying to defend a teammate not turtle like a wuss.

Or to insert before or after the inevitable next batch of horrific Sens news?!

Zibanejad, Chabot?

Chabot has proven NOTHING yet. Zibanejad was hyped as so much more than he ever reached here.

You're looking at the players from a personal point of view. Prime Bertuzzi was a beast - huge and fast. Brady will be big and a good skater but not the kind of physical specimen Bertuzzi was, but he'll have better hockey sense. Bertuzzi was not a great playmaker. He also wasn't much of an agitator - he'd intimidate but not annoy.

You might not like Lemieux's tactics but he was a leader and winner. He'd agitate and play a hard-nosed game but he wasn't someone who intimidated on the ice. He was also never a star but a guy who complemented star players.

Claude Lemieux... wow, I forgot about him.

He was a very skilled and hated player.....We could do worse I would think

 

[Ray Kinsella]

Agreed. He was the type of player people loved to hate, but appreciated at the same time. For the most part anyway.

Yeah he did go overboard at times,but he did have decent production...And hell he even scored 41 one season lol

 

[Ray Kinsella]

Yeah he did go overboard at times,but he did have decent production...And hell he even scored 51 one season lol

I didn’t realize he reached 51 goals. Good for him.
I can clearly remember his smirk lol... although I was pretty young at the time.

That reply was to your 51 not sure how I replied to the edit without realizing, but that makes much more sense!

 

[RAFI BOMB]

Somewhere between TJ Oshie and Patrick Maroon.

More like David Backes mixed with Claude Lemieux. Absolute best case scenario is he is another Keith Tkachuk.
