Do people not remember what Addison had shown prior to his injury?

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Im laughing at Samuel Houde so hard , what a waste of a draft pick

Addison, add Stapley

 

[Mrb1p]

I dont think Addisson and Bitten are much different. Similar upside on them... the 8 places gap is weird.

 

[Treb]

Rychel, add Audette.

Most probably not, I think I remember him praying on the bench though. I might be confusing him with someone else also.

Bitten has better speed, offense and defense. I look at Bitten as a 3rd liner and Addison a 4th liner.

Walford is even worse

Thats fine, yeah. Still pretty similar. I have a hard time seeing any of the two putting up more than 20 points a year.

it's hard to say what Bitten will do in terms of offense, he clearly has some skill and with his speed/effort he stands a good chance of getting some NHL games in.

I think the gap is a result of the changing NHL game. The game became a lot faster last year and a lot of small players emerged as really effective, while a lot of bigger players weren't as effective (e.g. Bobby Ryan). If the NHL were the same as two years ago, Addison might be ahead of Bitten. We'll see if Addison's game translates into the new era.

Wow there buddy, the NHL didnt magically get faster over night

It didn't magically do so. But it sure did so. Mainly over the last 10 years. But the new enforcement of the rule of not hooking to the hands, combined with all the other new rules/enforcement of old rules regarding hooking and holding, resulted in a faster game. Just look at the goals per game and top scorers last year versus the year before. Also, look at all the small players that did well (Brayden Point, Tropchek, Marchessault, etc...)

Check your calendar man, December 21st 2017 the NHL became faster. Fact.
