IMO too soon to make a decision on this yet.

Carlo looks more defensively minded, similar to a Tanev, where Dermott is more dynamic on both ends of the ice.

Both need more time in prominent roles before you can decide where they rank

 

[Jyrki Lumme]

Carlo is better defensively. But Dermott has been very impressive in that regard, and it's obviously no question who is better offensively. I'm sticking with Dermott, but it could still go either way.

Carlo. Big shutdown RHD are a lot harder to come by than smaller offensive LHD

Carlo looks bad everytime i watch him. Not good.

He’s pretty overrated

 

[firstemperor]

Carlo is more in the Lindholm/Manson/Pesce mode, and Dermott is more of a Giordano d-man. It's a odd comparison, Carlo has more pedigree (in terms of NHL games under his belt) right now but Dermott has looked very good over his stint and was dominant (not just good) at the AHL level. Could go either way down the line.

I should say though, a point echoed by pro scouts, that Dermott is as much of a developed prospect as any. Keefe did a great job with him in the Marlies.

This would have been Carlo by a mile last year, but Dermott has been the better player this year (since the call up at least)


8pts in 18 games and a +7 playing with Carrick/Holl/Polak. leafs have lost about 4 of those games.

Clearly you have not watched Dermott. He is a two-way D that is more noted for his defensive soundness than his offense, but is good offensively as well.

215 lbs is smaller? Interesting.

... and offensive d man? He’s not, at all.

Well done though, exposing the fact you have absolutely no idea about Travis Dermott.


Either is a fair choice - I’ll always favor the dynamic skater with high IQ and all situations potential. Carlo has a pretty limited offensive upside. Theoretically, they’d make a great pair.

 

[joe dirte]

too early to say. you pick Carlo now but only by default. dermott has been amazing lately but we need to see much more before we can say anything.

I decline voting

Shorter? Yes.

Bigger? You realize Dermott is heavier than Carlo right? And looking at pictures and how he can outmuscle guys, this is no Kessel.

 

[BostonBruins11]

i'll take the guy' who's already a top4 D on the best defensive team in the league (Carlo)

Dermott will obviously get over-hyped(Leaf effect)

 

[lomiller1]

Dermott easily. Not a fan of Carlo

yeah neutral fans on here just love the Leafs and our players

the gap in offense is much wider than the gap in defense, if there even is one

 

[Isaac Nootin]

Dermott.

Carlo is obviously overhyped (Bruins effect)

 

[Sundinisagod]

I think it's a great poll considering how close they were drafted. Carlo was the guy I wanted us to take, even at 24 before the move downs, but especially after the move downs. It's lookin pretty close right now. Too bad we didn't find a way to take them both.

 

[WilliamNylander]

Dermott, not close for me.

With that said, Dermott is actually heavier than Carlo, and a noted gym rat

Thats fair. He is stocky. But when its all said and done, Carlo will probably be heavier, he is still lanky, but he won't when he is a 28 year old man.

I think people misinterpreted me when I said he is smaller. Overall he is not small, just smaller than Carlo. Probably should have worded that differently.

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Shorter? Yes.

I meant it as shorter, thats my bad.

Having that kind of reach is huge for d-men.

 

[AvatarAang]

how is this even a poll, Carlo no question.

now Dermott does have higher upside mainly due to his superior offensive skill, but as of right now you could probably get 2 or 3 dermotts for the price of carlo.

 

[A1LeafNation]

How does Carlo have any votes. This guy is busting hard.

 

[Spirit of 67]

Aaaaand here we go..............

ah yes Jamie Oleksiak is much better than Erik Karlsson. That reach tho.
