Who made that comparison?  And is that reliable to go off of? Just curious, no offense meant

Yes it is... the top skating trainers used side by side video comparisons with Nico's skating was dead on Datsyuk

 

btw, they compared Patrick to Getzlaf

 

PS: top trainers marveled at Nico's speed but what they kept on stating was his ability to "Stop On A Dime"

Someone said Eric Staal on NBC.

Gotta admit, for some reason I thought the Devils were taking Patrick (not based on anything in particular, just a feeling)...not that I'm at all disappointed that they didn't.  Welcome to NJ Nico...can't wait to see you do your thing for the NEW JERSEY DEVILS!

Surprising from you bring that up, because many have said Nico's weight was not NHL ready, but at the 2003 Draft, Eric Staal was 6'3" - 180lbs

Just to clarify, the comparisons I heard were Nico =Datsyuk & Nolan = Staal.

Vancouver just picked Draco Malfoy, I'm pretty sure. 

My gf just said literally the same thing. :lol:

Hopefully he doesn't disappoint.  Have to give Shero benefit of the doubt here I think.  I'm a little shocked, but hopefully only good things for this young kid.  I'm hoping with a skating comparison to Datsyuk that we'll see him in the NHL this year.
