but kareem, you saw him live -> what's your perception of him? top offensive potential? similar to Taransko, Johanson, Emmerson, Burimistrov, Skinner and KUZNETSOV ?

Etem does not belong with the likes of Tarasenko, Skinner and Johansen.

My bad Shep, I was just naming players who IMO have more offensive upside then Watson, didn't mean to suggest that group was all the same.

I was just being a douche anyways. Everybody has their opinion and like 3-20 are pretty close IMO. Yeah, some are better than others. But it's a tight group.

He's a different type of forward, he isn't going to finesse you to death like the afformentioned players, but he will bang down low, use his size and reach to beat the opposition and score dirty goals in front. Combined with his elite defensive IQ he will make a very good player, IMO. Not unlike Jordan Staal.
