Are we still litigating the topic of, "Ryan O'Reilly is a really good hockey player"? Really?
1: "RoR is good."
2: "No he's not, watch the games."
1: "I do watch, he's really good."
2: "No he isn't look at the stats."
1: "I did. They say he's really good."
2: "No. Look at other stats."
1: "Here's a whole bunch of different stats that say he's good."
2: [Brings up EV P/60] "Here's one stat that says he's bad."
1: "Last year's Sabres team was one of the worst ever teams at EV scoring, and the past 2 years were the worst EV P/60 of Ryan's career"
2: "Here's one stat that says he's bad."
1: "Are you serious? We just...we just addressed that."
2: "Here's one stat that says he's bad."
1: "Are you stroking out right now?"
2: "Here's one stat that says he's bad."
1: "..."
2: "One stat. One stat. One stat......."
I know I did it once so I can't cast too many stones but I think we need to move beyond posting fake conversations to prove how stupid an argument is. If someone makes a dumb point or continues to repeat something, quote it. It takes more time but the oversimplification of people's arguments in posts like these don't add much to the conversation and isn't really fair.
