My son too! When I end up impregnating and making one that is.

Enter Mr. Pessimism.

17 years from now the first line will be: Larkin - Zetterberg - Player

Croatia would beat em.

This guy does. But he's also in his left mind.

Zetterberg is done.

You're not Karlsson.

Remember when I was trying to tell people Karlsson is close to Z and Franzen? And everyone was all skeptical.

They don’t invite Datsyuk to these things anymore Bertuzzi wearing a Detroit City shirt made me explode

Ken Holland = Jonas Mahonas

Have you people not noticed that Holland's own contract is 2 years. He don't give a f*** if he leaving after that.

Overpaid

I can handle the size, just not sure if my salivary glands and provide enough of the spit.

Sup?

Went with Null vote just to see what others voted.

Screw him

McGuire. Sounds kinky.

Wonder how AA- Zetterberg -Mantha would look Or AA - Zet - Zadina

Sometimes it’s 25/20

I agree. He was a little more responsible when they had him on center. But I don’t have issues with Franzen-ing (floating) if he can put up 25+ goals a year.

He hasn’t actually. People are comparing him to Nyquist who isn’t really even that good. Mrazek was coined a Vezina candidate for years. Aka being compared to the best in the league. AA gets a $3 million a year bridge deal and being compared to Nyquist and you guys want to start butchering him already lol. Not to mention the people supporting AA are for the most part agreeing that he would be a good asset to trade. Nothing like the Mrazek situation at all.

Larkin isn't as smart as Zetterberg quite yet. And you're still talking out your ass with no evidence other than "because I said so" and "eyeball tests". I'll play your game, here's eyeball proof. 200 foot player visual example. Clearly has got the skill and has done it. Also AA is a penalty killer. Nyquist isn't. You dodged a big point I made and just said it's because he's fast lol. Pure speculation and again; you haven't given any proof. Another example of 200 foot game. AA is the deepest forward on the backcheck before the turn over while he makes the play. Example of him going against the boards and helping creating a turn over. So. Much. Floating. People like to criticize AA a little too much. I agree that he's had his fair share of issues and on occasion have even spoken against him, but let's not discredit him this much. He's about as good as Nyquist is and has a higher skill set and likely will end up being a top 6 winger. And yes his speed is his biggest advantage and that's good enough in the present day NHL to make it far. Welcome to 2018 NHL. Speed kills.

Nice try? I haven't even started trying. What statistical evidence do you have to prove 1 and 2 actually makes a difference? You're talking out of your ass. AA actually has more defensive zone starts than Nyquist does. 47.1 vs 44.2 %. His even strength line production comes from lesser teammates. Nyquist had the luxury of playing with Mantha (our best goal scorer) and Zetterberg (our best play maker). As far as Corsi/Fenwick, they're about the same. Takeaway and blocked shots rate favor AA, but still about the same. AA kills penalties and Nyquist doesn't. So I'm not quite sure where you're getting the idea that Nyquist is more rounded? In fact, because AA gets less time on PP and Even strength (since he has to spend some time on PK), I'd argue that Nyquist is actually is in a more favorable position (add in the fact that he got to play with our best goal scorer and playmaker). And lol at #3. AA had 9.4 shooting % while Nyquist had 9.9. Wow what a big difference. AA is younger, still has a lot to learn; cheaper. https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/players/gustav-nyquist https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/players/andreas-athanasiou https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/a/athanan01.html https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/n/nyquigu01.html
