Crosbyfan said:I like Ryder but he IS 24. Bergeron is only 18. IF Bergeron's upside is limited to around 65 points as most on this board seem to think then you are probably right.
But if that's the case, Bergeron is approaching his peak. I see no sign of this at all.
From what we have seen so far, Bergeron went from BantamAA to Midget AAA to Junior Major to NHL 2nd liner in 3 years.
How can somebody seriously assume that he has already peaked after such improvements in this short lapse of time?
Chances are that we will see him improving at a frenetic pace in the next two-three years also.His mindset and attitude are focused that way and he is a perfectionist in all aspects of his game.
The mental maturity exhibited this year warrants that call.
He will be a serious contender for a top spot in the NHL in the years to come.
