Want to talk about "eye-test"? Who's eye? Ask GM's around the league what their Eye tells them, not the Biased fan of a team that a player plays for.
One major thing not one of you have acknowledged which is telling... They are completely different types of players. Larsson can play a shutdown role. Brodie, not so much.
Brodie is absolutely a better skater. But you cant teach a 6'1, sub 200 lb player how to be 6'3 and over 200 lbs.
And Larsson is a fine skater..
Thje point here is, and I feel you guys arguing with me are confused as to the point im making..
Im not arguing Brodie is inferior to Larsson, nor am I arguing Larsson is better than Brodie.
I am saying, contrast to Vinnie's post, Brodie is NOT miles ahead of Larsson which he was claiming.

Not that I agree with your side of the argument, but...you would be better off pointing towards hit totals. As much as fans like TJ, I believe he had the second lowest hit total among D men last year.
I know that's not his game, and them how hits are measured is fairly flimsy but it's probably not that far from the truth.
The flames are not a hard team to play against these days.
That said, no way would i trade Brodie for landeskog.
