You are not comprehending what I am saying and just jumping on players names like im trying to debate who is better than who. Its him vs his draft stock at 3rd overall. Hes not living up to that right now so you wont get that value back its a pretty simple concept
What do you expect a 3rd overall pick to do? Let's look back, shall we?
Huberdeau 2nd year post draft: 45 points in 30 QMJHL games
Galchenyuk 2nd year post draft: 27 points in 48 NHL Games
Drouin 2nd year post draft: 32 Points in 70 NHL Games
Draisaitl 2nd year post draft: 51 points in 72 NHL games
Dylan Strome 2nd year post draft: 75 points in 35 OHL games
PL Dubois 2nd year post draft: 48 Points in 82 NHL games
Heiskanen 2nd year post draft: 33 Points in 82 NHL games
Also important to factor that Kotkaniemi is younger than all of these guys. I don't know why you expect Kotkaniemi to be lighting up the league at 19
