20 year old vs a 33 year old....hmm tough choice.

 

[Sheppy]

... seriously?

 

[WillTheThrill]

Pettersson obviously, Bergeron is 33 years old lmao

 

[DCarriere]

Equivalent post: Shea Weber or Rasmus Dahlin - who would you want going forward?

 

[Ainec]

wtf, this isn't fair for Bergeron

 

[BostonBruins11]

well this is a stu** poll lol

 

[Sheppy]

Rasmus Dahlin or Zdeno Chara going forward?

 

[LuckyBoeser]

It would be better if you ask who you would take now lol

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

What is "going forward"? This year? 2 years? 5 years?

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

For the next 3 years? Bergeron
For the next 10 years? Petterson

 

[Elias GOATtersson]

On the Canucks I'd take EP (not currently contending, wont be until EP moves closer to prime), on bruins I'd take Bergeron (currently contending and he's Patrice Bergeron...). "going forward" is meaningless though, obviously you take the player with more than twice as long of a career remaining...

 

[Brock Radunske]

This is getting embarrassing...

 

[sufferer]

Moving forward? Pettersson. Moving backward? Bergeron.

 

[Tony Stacks]

Who would you take moving forward, Matthews or Getzlaf?

 

[Icebreakers]

Going forward is now until they retire.

Petterson moving forward but Bergeron over the next 3-4 seasons.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

For the next 3 years? Bergeron
For the next 10 years? Petterson

I think Pettersson has a case that he's a better overall player than Bergy right now and considering Bergy turns 34 this year, you'd be betting on him in his Age 35-37 season over a young stud like Pettersson.

i like Pettersson a lot, but the only stat he has Bergeron beat in is goals.

Bergeron has 53 pts in 41 for 1.29 ppg
Pettersson has 53 pts in 48 for 1.10 ppg

Bergeron has much better possession numbers while having a much higher d-zone start %. In addition to killing him on faceoffs (57% to 41%)

Bergeron scores at a higher rate while being the best defensive forward in hockey. As of today, Pettersson is still looking up

I mean switch Bergeron and Pettersson teams and linemates and their point totals probably look a lot different. I guess I wouldn't fault anyone for taking 37 right now, but if I had the choice for a guy for the stretch run and playoffs i'm taking Pettersson.

Lmaoo, do you watch hockey?

 

[JaegerDice]

I look forward to Bergeron's 1st ballot hall of fame induction, just for the HFBoards meltdown.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

Petterson Vs Gretzky

Who would you take going forward?

 

[Siludin]

Stay tuned, Pettersson vs. Price is coming up next.

 

[Pi]

Depends on what your situation is?

For 80%+ of the teams it will be Pettersson AINEC.

For a team like Tampa who is basically loaded everywhere, they would likely prefer Bergeron for cup runs.

On the Leafs, I'd definitely take Bergeron lol because he always burns them. Take him away from Boston.
