Little, easily. Unless we're just asking, "who currently has more points"?

Filppula did somehow become extremely underrated over the last couple of years though. He's always been a good, versatile player with a fairly typical "UFA premium" contract.

 

[Asiantuntija]

No we're not talking about points. Little is clearly better at defense, but Filppula is way better at offense and he doesn't get burned at defense. Little does get burned at offense way too often, so that makes difference in my books. Filppula has better vision, better hands, faster skating & more playmaking skills. I think this one should be pretty close, because both are below average level 2nd line center.

i think Filppula is currently playing better hockey, he has been very good this season with philly, gets lots of icetime and their line seems to have pretty good chemistry.

You do realize that Little has been a better scorer than Filppula every season since 2012 right?

72/133/205 in 370 games for Filppula
93/150/243 in 332 games for Little

Would you like Tyler Bozak for Bryan Little?

Filppula hasn't been bad in Philly, but I'd take Little in a heartbeat over him.

Maybe, but thinks has changed.

Would you like Tyler Bozak for Bryan Little?

Yes. Bozak is better player.

Maybe, but thinks has changed.

Because Filppula has 3 more points so far this season?

Filppula hasn't been bad in Philly, but I'd take Little in a heartbeat over him.

Actually, I would rather Flip and his UFA contract than Little and his 31-36 year old contract.

Hopefully the Flyers will move on from Flip at some point in the year and trade him for a pick.

If you include contracts I would probably agree. Though, I wouldn't put it past Hexy to resign Flip after this year.
