I meant his style of play. He doesn't seem assertive and doesn't seem to have a lot of emotion on the ice unless he is scoring. He seems like one of those players that will have to play on the top lines if he is going to make it, whereas Poirier seems like he has more versatility.

I love Baertschi's skill level though and I think he has a chance of eventually being a full time NHLer, but I just think players with a little more grit like Poirier, have a little more utility and are therefore more valuable if they also have a fair amount of offensive talent.
