I recall hearing the exact opposite. Mikael was the more talented one but Markus was the one who many thought was overall better suited for the NHL game.
The early results seem to suggest that is true. Mikael seems to have a little more flash and playmaking ability to his game, while Markus quietly, but fairly consistently, puts up the points and plays a solid game. He does have quite a fantastic shot as well.
I'm quite happy with our Granlund.
