[Blufreezy]

Since when is Backstrom is underrated?

 

[POVERTY]

Bard Marchand winning both best and worst trash talker is perfect

 

[Blufreezy]

Gritty with a 69% best mascot is so gritty

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Kuznetsov in the most underrated section? Didn't expect that.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Gritty in a God damned landslide.

....I do think picking Crosby as the player you'd start your franchise with NOW is a bit short sided but hey.

 

[alko]

Im missing:

Who is the most difficult player to play with?

 

[BruinLVGA]

Thanks for the link. Lollllll @ Marchand for being the best AND worst trash-talker in the league at the same time...

 

[BonMorrison]

Nick Cousins has that rep.

 

[SlapshotTheMovie]

The GM after they retire picks were interesting.

 

[justafan22]

Does Yandle have that much of a personality??

 

[StoneHands]

Gritty proving yet again that he's the GOAT.

This is probably the 10th time I'm posting this:

When 100% of people's opinion of Barkov is "I absolutely love that guy, he is so underrated!".... he is, in fact, NOT underrated.

Does Yandle have that much of a personality??

He made a video when he was on the rangers that was amazing. He put on movie makeup and changed his look a little bit. Then he went up to all the other players on the rangers and asked for an autograph and started saying super intense stats and acting like a super fan and then made creepy comments because he knew the players personally so they thought he was a stalker. I and not doing the video justice but it was funny as f***.

Besides message boards like this where is he getting any love? The NHL and main stream media almost never mention him. Thats why he is under rated. But then again i guess you know more then players in the NHL.

 

[Tatar Shots]

How do only 50% of NHL players believe Ovechkin has the best shot in the league? How do 15% believe Weber has a better shot than OV?

 

[Maplebeasts]

Price the best goalie in the league? That hasn't been true for like 3-4 years

Well, besides message boards like these, what main stream media talks about hockey at all?

Because they talk about him all the time on NHL network. And a quick google search of his name finds all sorts of praise.

When HF posters know better than actual players!

 

[Patmac40]

Yandle is a riot. Every interview I've seen and podcast I've heard him on is hilarious. Every guy I've heard who's played with him has said he's the funniest guy in the room.

 

[Melkor]

Kucherov at 4 as a best player is a joke. Good ol' Canadian boys are chosen by good ol' Canadian boys. Other news at 11.

Maybe not on HF with the most feverish of hockey fans.

But if you asked the casual fan about Barkov, they would say, "Who?"

Yes because Crosby and McDavid are so clearly inferior to Kucherov that is insane to think players would pick them before Kuch

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Since when is Backstrom is underrated?

Since 2007/2008.

In 2018-2019? Umm they are legit so inferior to Kucherov that it's insane. Mcdavid as always stat-padding at the end of a season in meaningless games when his team is already two miles out of the playoffs. Same story as last year. Crosby's is great but his best days behind him, he's nowhere near winning scoring race or selke or any other hardware.
