Interesting to see it so close. Nylander and Ehlers as player archetypes do remind me quite a bit of Drouin and MacKinnon. The draft pedigree is a bit different whereas Nylander and Ehlers have arguably had better results lately so I was very curious about how their power levels would be perceived.
Drouin + Mackinnon would be like Datsyuk Zetterberg line jr. Quite a bit better than the other pair
What's a power level? Please tell me it's not that dragon ball z thing.
Drafted with higher expectations, but they haven't proven they're better than Nylander and Ehlers. Willie also didn't **** and moan over playing in the AHL for a season to help his development and demand a trade. I don't think it's fair to make the comparison today when Colorado just had a horrible season and Drouin's break out year doesn't even result in him matching either Ehlers or Nylander's totals. It's pretty slanted and favored towards the only info we know, that Ehlers and Nylander were better last season. If this is a poll based solely on potential and the assumption that all 4 players reach it then I could see people voting Mack and Drouin, but not based on the results we current have.
Well if NHL stops once and for all and players wont develop then maybe I see your point. However this current situation doesnt last long as these about 20 y Olds continue their progress.
