...Very insightful and in-depth. Great read, 10/10!<br /><br />Definitely agree on Yamamoto playing a more physical game than Marner and Gaudreau.

Separating the talking points from the truth.<br /><br />Though, I will say that Kailer is a much different player type than Marner and Gaudreau, he does physically engage a lot as part of his game. The thing is, this only exposes the false narrative further, as he didn't have a problem at all playing his game against NHL players in terms of winning the puck.keith anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00004826916998714989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079527964585280221.post-62190836904089681062018-09-06T06:55:41.055-07:002018-09-06T06:55:41.055-07:00Thank you!!Thank you!!keith anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00004826916998714989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079527964585280221.post-46212599564894428002018-09-06T06:55:29.335-07:002018-09-06T06:55:29.335-07:00I think he was in the blue-ballsing area where he&...I think he was in the blue-ballsing area where he's juuuuust a second off of NHL timing and angles. Right before skill players are actually ready to add their true value the NHL, what they'll do is put up great underlying numbers and have poor shooting percentage numbers. I've observed this with many, many players. It happened exactly that way with Draisaitl. We'll see soon if Yamamoto's good to go or not. All it is, is finish.keith anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00004826916998714989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079527964585280221.post-49361228840286905772018-09-05T20:07:22.691-07:002018-09-05T20:07:22.691-07:00If Yamo doesn't flourish, it won't be beca...If Yamo doesn't flourish, it won't be because he didn't 'bulk up'. The morons said Marner needed to put on weight too - he never did and it didn't matter. Johnny Hockey never outmuscles anyone to the puck, nor does Patrick Kane, for that matter, and it doesn't hold them back. They'll say it again next year about Jack Hughes and they'll be wrong again.Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13443166400156991697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079527964585280221.post-17736807665080207002018-09-05T04:48:10.238-07:002018-09-05T04:48:10.238-07:00Seriously great article dude.

This isn't because it's Kailer but because he's still a kid and the Oilers are infamous at putting teenagers in the show before ready. Figured that with a smaller talent they'd be able to control themselves but, you build a past.<br /><br />Here's hoping he gets 30 goals and then you can say i told you so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
