inkman Posted November 6, 2014 Report Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) A bartender friend if mine who is a huge bruins honk overheard me espousing the talents of McDavid, where I was comparing him to Crosby. He immediately tried to douse my flames with a "he ain't freaking Crosby". Now I can retort "you are right, McDavid is better." Edited November 6, 2014 by inkman
Crusader1969 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Posted November 6, 2014 Going to see that McDavid guy tonight vs the Ice Dogs (worst team in OHL). Over/under for points by McDavid? Im thinking 4.5 and would lean to the over

Randall Flagg Posted November 8, 2014 Report Posted November 8, 2014 Eichel ties it at 3 in the third period, deflection off his skate from the point shot.

Now one point out of the top spot in the entire nation, with 3 less games played. I really picked the wrong year to leave (well, except for the massive raise and the cheaper cost of living). This type of scoring was usually found at the other end of Comm Ave.

Hoss Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 Heard an interesting comparison for Jack Eichel over the weekend -- Phil Kessel. Certainly not in the conditioning department, but the good shot and overall ability makes sense.
3putt Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 Don't really see that. While both are snipers, Eichel brings more vision and grit. Both can score.
Hoss Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 Don't really see that. While both are snipers, Eichel brings more vision and grit. Both can score. I agree with this. As scorers it may be a good comparison. They're both very able scorers and have great shots to do so. Otherwise, I'm not completely sure.
WildCard Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 The shot and being the big name American prospect are really all that warrants the comparison. Like you both said, Eichel is definitely more physical, and from all the interviews/reviews I've seen of him, he has a much higher compete than Kessel ever will. If Eichel turns out to be Kessel I'll be severely disappointed.
Weave Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 If Kessel is what Eichel is being compared to I am even more against the tank. What happened to two generational players?
