For most here it is discussion. But you consistently take such an oppositional stance on matters pertaining to the Flames—frequently promoting such absurd ideas that it is extremely difficult to take you seriously at all.

We have a what I would assume unbiased analysis of prospects and it puts Fox tied with Valimaki.
There are posters who unequivocally say that Valimaki is a better prospect than Fox.

Baises aside (we all have them, and you are NOT exempt), why would you think that everyone posting on this site shares precisely the same opinions, and for the same reasons?
But beyond all that, the case many make for viewing Valimaki as the superior prospect is based on more concretely established factors like size (Valimaki is a good deal bigger) and skating skill (Valimaki skates a hell of a lot better). People here project Valimaki as a better prospect than Fox because he very likely is.
But moreover, your typically (and conveniently) flat, wooden tendency to ignore all mitigating factors and simply compare numbers has led you to first complain about comparing Valimaki to Fox, and then proceed to compare Fox to Gaudreau of all players! Your discussion above falls completely flat by your failure to account for several crucial differences such as the fact that Fox dominates the ECAC, while Gaudreau (and Hanifin!) played their college hockey in the much more highly competitive Hockey East.
