Byfield has a chance to be an excellent #1 center that every team of dream of having, but you absolutely take Lafreniere if you're drafting first. There was zero debate all season about Lafreniere being the consensus #1 over Byfield. Instead, there's no debate about whether Stutzle has surpassed Byfield.
Just curious where you heard this? I haven't heard or read anything bad about Byfield's clutch factor or compete-are you maybe thinking of the fact that he has room to get more mean and physical?
