I think the better question at this point is "whose reputation took a bigger hit in the past 12 months - W Nylander or Laine"

This is getting a bit silly the players some are prefering to Laine after one bad half season.

I still predict he'll end up closer to Matthews career wise than most think. And im very high on Matthews.

I'm confused why you're bringing up Leaf players when this has nothing to do with them.

Laine, quite easily for me as well

 

[Llamamoto]

Wow. I actually had no idea his full name was Samson.

And I would take Laine.

 

[Aladyyn]

I think there are like 5 teams who would benefit more from having Laine.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Laine very, very easily

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Lainec

 

[f1nn]

Normally I would say Laine, but Samson is such a dope name it makes it too close to call

Ah yes, it's one bad half season, certainly not that Laine still sucks ass at everything that's not shooting the puck after 3 years in the league.

 

[elmaco]

Laughable thread, this is Lainec.

 

[GOALOFSSON]

Voted for Samson, should learn more about both this season.

I think when William Nylander had a horrible season after his holdout last year, everyone here gave up on him and started saying he's damaged goods. When just 1 year prior - majority opinion was Nylander ~ Marner. A bad season doesn't change that. I'm making a parallel with Laine, because after the last half of his season last year, i'm seeing the same thing - everyone seems to have given up on Laine, saying he's damaged goods. When just 1 year prior, he was the heir apparent to Ovi, or close, according to HF.

I'm bringing up Matthews just because they were drafted #1 and #2, and for a long time there was a question as to who ends up better. I still think it's Matthews - but to hear some people talk about Laine now he's a flop. The truth is, he isn't, he's likely to bounce back and be a star player in this league, and probably ends up pretty close to Matthews career-wise when a few years from now.

Laine has a ton of upside.
Reinhart? He's ~ok, not the same caliber player though.

 

[Aladyyn]

Yeah they're definitely not the same caliber players. Reinhart is way better.

Exactly. It’s certainly not that

 

[MackAttack26]

Laine Goals in November: 18
Laine Goals in other 6 months: 12

If you are only good at 1 thing, you better be a hell of a lot more consistent than that.

I'll take Samson on my team thanks.

 

[sufferer]

On the Sabres? Samson Reinhart, no question.

 

[Just doink]

Of course Laine, not fair match-up.

 

[Fugazy]

Laine.

Is this satire? When asked why you're bringing up Leafs in a poll that has nothing to do with Toronto you double down by going into more depth why you feel the way you do about Nylander?

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

At what percent in this considered a blow out?

 

[tacogeoff]

Laine and very easily.

 

[heilongjetsfan]

This is finally the year you're going to start watching hockey?

 

[Machinehead]

Is his name really Samson?

f*** that shit, I'm voting for Laine.

 

[GOALOFSSON]

Reinhart has improved each and every year. Laine, well... you tried.
