No, I'm not done yet
You want to play like this? Fine, I'll go full game 7 too!
Still waiting for you to give me these countless examples of Dmen who played their rookie season when they were turning 24 and ended up being top pairing D like many Rangers fans think he becomes. If there are so many then please list them.
So who are they then? Let's see if the 4th time I ask will be when you answer.

Well over a dozen players drafted after him that are better. Some light years. It was a bad pick then and it's still a bad pick now.
That's not really saying much considering how many players were drafted after him. And nearly every team has a top 10-15 pick that you can say that about.
Sure, every team can say it. But every team is saying it about McIlrath. How does that make you feel?
Bumping this up. This guy has been on fire with theRangersWolf Pack this season. Now, I know it's early, but I truly think he could prove us all wrong and justify his draft placement after all. Look at a guy like Fowler - he's been in the league for a while but has really stagnated since his rookie season, putting up 40 points and then never hitting that number since. He's no Norris winner, that's for sure. Just about all of his linemates improve their possession numbers when they are separated from him, and we all know that possession numbers win championships. I see McIlrath developing into a dominant defensive force in theNHLAHL while putting up at least 4 goals and 10 assists a season. The kind of guy his teammates get up to play with. A visceral, lead by example, tough MF. Not trying to be a homer or anything
I'll wait for my infraction now...should be worth it

Still holds true and this thread is, again, a perfect example of it.This thread is what happens when one is too caught up in advanced stats. I look at them from time to time to see if they support what I'm seeing (eye test) but it's pretty cringe worthy when people use them as the be all end all in arguments.
This thread is a perfect example of that.

So if they don't match up with what you see then they're bunk?
