The Czech Condor
An interesting point was brought up in a thread in Gamenight chat called "Staal scores #7 in 7" about Jason Spezza and Eric Staal being pretty comperable. Both are 6'3. Both were taken #2 overall in their respective drafts, and both are said to be playmaking centers with goal-scoring ability.
Now all hype aside, who do you consider to be the better player? Is this comparison really as close as it seems, or is the hype machine working overtime for one of them?
Who is better right now? Who was better at 18? Who will be better in the future?
I know that all we can do is speculate on the future part, but i'd really like some insightful opinions on who is going to eventually become the better player.
Your thoughts?
