Laf hype easily, Laf is a great prospect, but he wasn’t supposed to be as good as Matthews, Eichel and McDavid, now people are expecting him to carry teams to a cup all of sudden, Zion missed almost full season, in probably the most talented era of young players in the NBA and still looked like the prospect in the league by a quite a margin.
I think people saw McDavid and how quickly he became a superstar (since that never happens because the skill gap b/w pro and lower leagues Is too damn high so there are many players who get exposed) and moved the expectations onto him. If he struggles I won’t be surprised
yeah and by the time Lafreniere is 25 Wright will be 23. Like i stated, i think Wright will be better than Lafreniere.
Pretty sure Laf is an all around monster like a Mcdavid/Mackinnon and not a trigger man like Matthews/Pastrnak so waiting to "see how many goals he can score" is a really weird thing to say. Unless of course you have some sort of agenda.
You just showed your agenda, clearer than day, but everyone already knew that.Pretty sure Laf is an all around monster like a Mcdavid/Mackinnon and not a trigger man like Matthews/Pastrnak so waiting to "see how many goals he can score" is a really weird thing to say.

Just a trigger man?
But you said he is just a trigger man?
My favorite player is Mackinnon, and no I do not know that Lafreniere is 1 million times better than Mackinnon. I'm just saying judging him purely based on how many goals he scores makes no sense because he isn't that type of player.
Oh I though you were a Pettersson fan lmfao
!I'm a Canucks fan but I wouldn't call myself a Pettersson fan. I think he's really good but I'm not as high on him as most Canucks fans.Oh I though you were a Pettersson fan lmfao
Yeah, MacKinnon is the man. Not much else to say here.
