OK if we go by hits you aren't even the best power Forward of your SMJHL Team. That's Vasily Horvat who even had better offensive production.

Ahhhh my issue is that you used '1' stat (points) to make a case that a player was not worthy which belittles all of the players like a Vasily Horvat who did not jack up the primary scoring attributes on a 350 cap so they can focus on affecting the game in a differant way. A true power forwards value should not be graded solely by how many points they score as our primary objective is to hit people, get into some scraps and open up the ice for players like your self to score. Being worthy wasnt my point, it's that you made a determination on the value of a PF based around a scorers checklist.

Now there were some great PF’s when i played!  #9 Dani Forsberg AKA @Insayne may be the best juniors player ever to play the game and the @QuantumCowboy Angelo Odjick was amazing out there. Horvat played before Izzy and was the gold standard of how you play the PF position! (and def deserving of an entry in this game)  but Izzy did his job, i dont know how it is now but 140+ hits in the juniors back in the 30's was a big number, probably top 3-5 in the league. the Augment Was a disturbing figure in a Kelowna uniform. but I dont want to make this post an all out debate on player builds so ill leave it at that .. see everyone at the game!

Tomen on a side note, hope your doing well brotha
