Except a devils fan made this

In what universe is Brady Tkachuk worth more than Jack Hughes:

Points in favour of Jack:
-younger
-more term
-more valuable position
-better scorer
-better playmaker
-better play driver
-better defensively
-cheaper contract

Points in favour of Tkachuk:
-health
-#hitz

if you value hitz that highly I'm sure Toronto would sell ryan reaves for a couple of 1sts if you want him

Any trade will be Johansen for Jones comparable.

Brady is worth a young piece that’s going to be a high end 1st liner or top pair RD . End of talk

Probably. But you have to get a team to offer you that if he demands a trade. Which team is going to bite?

If Tkachuk demands a trade and teams offer collections of assets like they so often do, Ottawa would be SOL.

But if he doesn't request a trade, he will not be traded

There will likely be at least 25 offers for Brady.

Tkachuk will perform better in playoffs.

“Brady is worth more than Jack Hughes“

….is the new “I’d rather have Gudas than Makar”

You just don’t trade a young piece you build around for a bunch of pieces that you don’t build around . I

I’d take Brady over a bunch of guys that get more points and do nothing else . Intangibles and what Brady brings raises his value.

I would not take Marner over him and anyone like Marner . Getting a guy that gets 15-20 pts more doesn’t make up for what Brady brings

Lol, maybe he should try and get there first

This would be a great chirp except that Jack has been a whole one more time than Brady has, and couldn't get out of the second round.

Marner is very good defensively at 5v5 and he kills penalties?

Brady Tkachuk is not.

Why does defensive and PK value not count as something "other than points" but hitting and fighting does?

playing good defense and killing penalties helps a team win more than hitting and fighting

So sounds like Jack has actually taken his team to the playoffs

He will. Also Hughes has been there 1 time so don’t be cocky.

I like both players. You have some weird fetish to always hate on Brady when you know that it’s players like him that drag their teams through trials and tribulations of playoffs.

Marner also turns into a shrinking violet in the playoffs so…

This assumption that playoff games are won because of hits and fights rather than goals for and against is simply stupid.

Jack Hughes is better at helping his team score goals, and better at helping his team not get scored on.

Jack also didn't have Dorion as his GM sabotaging the team lol. NJD overall is just a better team than Ottawa too.

And got stomped by a team that got swept the next round. And if somehow the Devils had gotten past the Canes, one of the ten Panthers actually built for the playoffs would have turned Jack into mincemeat. The point is being built for playoffs, and 140lb skill boys aren't that.

I know, but it's still funny

You don’t watch the playoffs much do you…

with Mitch Marner on the ice in the playoffs over the last 5 years at even strength: 60.98% of Goals go to toronto, 58.52% of xgoals. They significantly outshoot, outchance, and outscore opponents with Mitch Marner on the ice.

In terms of playoff PPG, Marner's playoff PPG is the exact same as what brady tkachuk's PPG was this year. If you're calling marner a shrinking violet in the playoffs, then it sounds like Tkachuk was a shrinking violet all of this year.

And I assume you'll go into wins and losses.
Tkachuk hasn't even been able to win in the regular season.

Let me guess, the panthers are winning because of #fights. Sure, totally nothing to do with the fact they've been analytically dominant all year. because of #fights

We haven’t seen a motivated Brady yet. Usually the Sens are out by like November so he hasn’t had the chance to show it. Brady in a must win game will go crazy.

Because most teams generally already have the point producers on their teams but they don’t have the Brady type power forwards on the other side
