All I needed to see that this list is dumb is that it has Fox physical rating at 30 and Chytil at 55. All you need to see to know its legitimacy.

Actually, thats probably not far off. Fox is not physical at all. What makes him so good is avoiding getting hit. He uses his stick and some incredible 1st moves to avoid contact.

Which is fine but to put any kind of physical rating on Chytil is ridiculous.

I think you're too deep in the weeds on the "Chytil is soft" narrative. By no means is he a bruiser, but you're making him out to be softer than baby poop...

The season was so long ago, but I vaguely remember his compete level going up towards the end of the year.

He’s pretty damn soft but I’ll give him a pass for now, he needs to fill out that frame a little. I do remember a few games where he was noticeably physical but they didn’t carry over into the following games. If he can bring that on a more consistent basis I’d be very happy. I’m very high on the kid, I don’t think 18-20 goals and 25 assists is out of the question for him this year.

I think its going to be hard for him to kick the shoot first mentality he has (to a detriment from time to time). However, I think with some consistency of his linemates, he might do the opposite and have like 23g 15a kinda stat line. It will be interesting to see how it plays out if they have Kreider and Gauthier playing with him because neither one are playmaker types. It might be an adjusting period for him to have to think about being pass first.

Call me crazy but I'm thrilled he is a shoot 1st center. Zib is a shoot 1st center too but has matured into knowing when to shoot and when to pass.

I was getting real tired of the unselfish players passing up golden opportunities just to pass the puck.

it makes no sense how Pronman includes Auston Matthews in his under 23 rankings but not Connor McDavid

Stewart gave that girl more concussions than Crysby, most likely the same way.
