I don't care if Berg is a former NHL veteran. Kronwall is still better. And I never said Konwall is a better offensive defenceman than Nummelin, but Kronwall is more of a complete package and way more physical than Nummelin.psycho_dad said:Berg is an NHL veteran. Nummelin has several all star selections in world championships, has won the swiss league scoring title once, as a defenseman.
Kronwall has already proved me with his play in the AHL, WHC, and Olympics. In the NHL, he came back from the injury this season so that certainly affected his play there. Next season he's going to be huge and will be right there with Phaneuf and Pitkänen.psycho_dad said:Yes, Kronwall has to actually succeed in the NHL level and in more than one world championships before you can rate him over guys like Berg or even Nummelin. Especially Berg who has already represented his country in a few super tournaments, and has played like 600 NHL games. Kronwall is a very promising young guy, but he has something to prove before you can just rank him above people who have actually achieved more.
