I'm having trouble finding how O'Reilly is under rated.

He's paid as a top 20 NHL forward. He was traded for a boatload, and gets the ice time of a franchise center.

How is he under rated?

- sbroads24

just mentioning how the players on the ice voted...

perhaps they mean underrated by the fans who aren't on the ice every day?

what does that have to do with the price of bananas in Egypt?

I’m not sure why players OPINIONS who see him maybe twice a year which also includes morons like bernier should carry more weight than both basic and advanced stats.

let me get this straight...

you're saying that nerds behind the computer can tell you more about a player than those who play against him?

Read more. I said why should I take a players opinion over data itself, not the nerds just the numbers that are the result of his play. If they did an upper management poll and ROR was ranked top 5 underrated that would be something I’d be interested in as those are people actually responsible for player evaluation and roster construction

because there are a lot of other things in play that stats can't document or chart...this isn't baseball where there's a one-on-one matchup between pitcher and hitter with definable characteristics over a very large sample size...it's a team game with a lot going on at any given second

Case against Zay Jones reportedly dropped for insufficient evidence

http://profootballtalk.nb...or-insufficient-evidence/

Damn that money talks

- gerbe75pts


The "insufficient evidence" is he was altered, and probably wouldn't have kicked out a window while naked and ranting about fighting for Jesus if he wasn't.

So a guy who’s on the ice during all this unmeasurable chaos, is a good guy to characterize “unde rated”?

such as? look if he was making half what he is and playing half the minutes he's getting id understand. Youd take the subtleties of the game over his poor numbers because in that role, it's more about those little plays than the production.

But he's not. He's making 7.5 mil on the cap and getting a poop ton of ice time. He may do all the little things well, but you can't make 7.5 mil based on doing the little things.

in the article there was no evidence when you have “video evidence “

That seems kind of fishy to me he’s obviously paying for the damages but he’s paying people on the side too

That's wrong, it says "insufficient evidence" to charge him with vandalism. To be a vandal you have to break something on purpose just to break it. That's clearly not what happened here.

How did he not do it on purpose ?

It’s not like he tripped and broke something .

did it intentionally
