I have just been invited to this sight today and have spent the last few hours reading which must be uninformed posts or ones that come from fantasy land. Now cheering for your country and or a player form your country is a good thing, but let’s get real using Crosby's and Kessell's name in the same sentence is nothing but a true showing of your ignorance in the true sense of the word.
Fact if Crosby was able to be drafted last year he would have been #1
Source: North American scouting report.
Fact if there is a draft this year Crosby will go #1
Source: Every scouting report.
Fact if there is no draft this year and Crosby is not a free agent he will be drafted #1 next year well ahead of Kessell.
Source: The 30 possible teams that could draft him #1.
In closing this is in no way a post to cut down Kessell and he is the U.S.A.'s best player by far, but please don't insult the next great thing for hockey in your comparisons. :joker:

No, rather it was a post to introduce yourself and showcase your subpar intellect.

While I agree that Crosby will go first no matter when the next draft is....that doesn't mean I agree with anything else you say.
However....how does everyone comapre Sidney's 16 year WJC to Kessel's 16 year old WJC....
I still take Frolik over Kessel.
That's just me.

Was Kessel in the WJC when he was 16? I don't remember him from last year.

I mean two years prior to their draft year.

These hype threads are becoming ridiculous. I think we can all think rationally, and I think we can all put things into perspective.
And everyone knows that Rico Fata is the next great player.
