There used to be this guy on the forums that was absolutely 100% convinced that John Tavares wouldn't be an elite player because his skating mechanics were not at an NHL level.
And mercy... he put a LOT of effort into writing his post/opinions and anybody that disagreed with him was... simply put... an uneducated hockey analyst.
He left somewhere around the time Tavares started... being Tavares.
A snippit where he argues that Bobby Ryan is better than Tavares in any format:

(and most of us, myself included, were very high on Bobby Ryan back in 2011... but still... to say Ryan was a lock for 80pts even without any decent linemates... oh dear)
