Don't understand that cries about Couturier ranked so low.
Fact 1: He had poor WJC. He was from unimpressive to invisible as tournament went on.
Fact 2: Canada lost finals - I know, not Couturier's falt, but still...
I agree, that being overhyped before WJC is the main reason, why he's so low now. But he's got enough time to prove people wrong. Personally, I think that #3 suits him well at the moment (drop to #4 no big deal though). If he can dominate Q again, than he can regain his #1 status, but right now, Larsson and Landeskog are clearly in front of him...
thank god you don't scout for my team...with those two facts you gave it still does not give a fact that Landeskog is better than him...Landeskog was hurt during the whole tournament so we never got to see him play against that compeition...so your comparing Couturier not doing what you thought offensivly in the world juniors but yet he played well overall, an comparing to what Landeskog is doing in the OHL though compared Courturier is doing just the same in the QMJHL and he doesn't have a team like Kitchener around him...so to make a judgement on a player that is too young to be drafted yet compared to NHL 1st round picks already for the last year or two and not understand why he never exploded offensivly....
