No, no his comparable is not Versteeg.

I get it, the guy is overpaid and part of the loser core of a loser organization. But up until this year, where he still put up 50+ points, the guy has been a consistent high level 60+ point producer in a league where there aren't many consistent 60+ point producers.

Over the last 4 years only 29 players have outscored him, he has the same amount of points as the Sedins, more than Duchene, Marleau, Monahan....

He's no more a comparable to Brouwer and Versteeg than Monahan is a comparable to Letestu.
Pretty ridiculous statement at the end there. Eberle has zero defensive game. Nice how you use a 4 year sample size and toss Monahan in there so his 34pt rookie season skews the numbers.

Eberle is paid to be an elite top line talent and he is a middling second line forward. He might score 10-20pts more than Frolik but brings zero on the PK and makes $1.7M more. Frolik got those dollars as a 27 year old UFA and Eberle gets his deal out of his ELC.
