Jurco vs. Kadri

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

Don't know much about Jurco but the only thing holding Kadri back from the pros is some strength and conditioning. Like another poster mentioned, Kadri will battle in the corners and drive to the net like it's nobodies business. He has amazing hands and the ability to make something out of nothing. Kadri is training with Roberts this off-season so he manages to improve his explosiveness and regain some of the foot speed he lost under TML's strength and conditioning coach Anthony Belza, he'll be a real treat.

He is bigger certainly more Mobile than Hudler at the least which are Hud's main issues.

I think that was pretty clear from my post. Kadri had an excellent offensive season. He was the offensive leader on a team that scored 270 goals only 15 less than the team the previous season that picked up Tavares and Del Zotto at the deadline. So I would say they were a very strong offensive team in 2009-2010.
2009-2010 and 2008-2009 London Knights had the exact same regular season record.

Either way Kulemon we can agree that we both would take Kadri due to his offensive track record compared to Jurco during their time in the OHL and QMJHL respectively.

I'd take Bobby Butler off of waivers before i tried Kadri on my team.


Why are there so many threads for a player thats already a bust?

I lold. Kadri's a near PPG player in the AHL.

[Drew311]

If the Leafs drafted Jurco he would already be considered a bust.

[QMJHLfollower]

Since when Jurco is better than Kadri offensively?

[birddog*]

All the Kadri haters need to bookmark this thread nd come back in a few year.s

[Fearless Leaf]

Kadri easily, and it's not even close to being close. Kadri is also much better than all of the Wings prospects.

And Kadri would still be the inferior prospect in the eyes of HFboards.

Fact, if Kadri was drafted by the Wings people would talk about what a great prospect he is, being brought along the right way, and having success at all levels of hockey.

and if he was drafted by the wings, he would reach his potential

[lakai17]

Jurco will be the better offensive player in the future, he was picked late in his draft year.

[Danadiens]

As much as it's fun to have threads that are a collective bash of the Leafs, I'd take Kardi here.

[Dark Knight]

I won't trade Kadri for any Wings prospect. Sorry but this is an unfair comparison.

[Chandrashekhar Limit]

This isn't even close.

Kadri is much better offensively, and isn't soft as butter. Kadri everyday of the week for me.

[gifted88]

Kadri is the more physical player but haven't seen much of that at the pro level. Obviously can't compare that to Jurco since he hasn't played pro yet.

Personally I'd rather have Jurco but Kadri may end up the better player of the two.
