Gaudreau is tied for 3rd in the league in scoring. It's not like it's so clear cut that Kucherov is better than him.

So? 2 years ago Gaudreau scored 78 in 79, you should've been laughed at.
Even in hindsight Gaudreau has 40 points on the season, outscoring next highest linemate by 10 points and 3rd highest teammate by double...
Kucherov is the first line winger that Drouin should have been. It was an absolute steal to draft him in the second round. I didn't know how good he would be until I saw him play with Namestnikov in the AHL. The two are the best I've ever seen together down there in the AHL. The first one in our forums to jump on the hype train was a poster by the name of RobertGuess who no longer posts, I think, due to health issues.

Kucherov's good. He's damn good. Being an Orlando native, I've had the pleasure of seeing him live quite a few times and he literally has no faults to his game it seems. Both him and Hedman are among my favorite players to watch in the league.

Sounds like this guy was secretly watching a nature documentary and you were eaves dropping on him. Very rude, imo. I know plenty of guys that have to watch that kind of stuff in public because the people they live with don't understand why their son has become obsessed with animals. The fact that this guy was talking about blind squirrels and nuts is a dead giveaway. That's very kinky.

I'm not sure about easily, McDavid is right with him
but as of now I do have Kuch as best in the world.
He's good enough that he's somehow convinced Cooper to allow him to try for breakaways when we don't have full control of the puck. That is mad respect by Cooper and probably doesn't happen if Kucherov foregoes his defensive responsibilities.
Most intelligent player I've ever seen, as long as he can stay healthy his ceiling will be incredibly high.

Same to me 11 years ago when I said he would be leading scorer 11 years from then. Of course I don't have any proof to back up my claim like most people, but I said it, I swear!

I hope he improves and becomes unquestionably the best player. He was one of my favourite 4 prospects ever, along with Tarasenko, Drouin, and Kuznetsov. Always knew he was good. Never thought he'd be this good. And doesn't seem to have topped out yet either.
I remember a heated debate over how Kuch would never crack the NHL's top ten in scoring.

He gives the best interviews.
Skip to 1:27 for dumb question response.

It was one of these russian threads (Kuznetsov vs Tarasenko vs Kuch vs whatever), most people had Kuch as the last one, went there and said he was as good as Tarasenko and that he would score one day 40 goals on a season. Turns out that one time I was right.
I also though that Filatov would be awesome and well... Filly don't do rebounds.
Yeah he gives pretty detailed responses and has pretty good English, considering its not his first language.

I mean, he got what, like 85 points last year basically with stamkos out all year? He’s a damn good player and I’m not surprised at all
