WHY ALL THE BUZZ ABOUT GABORIK?
I got a question to ask. WHY is there so much buzz about Marian Gaborik. With trade rumors swirling and rumors of Marian Gaborik being resigned I don’t quite understand why people are getting so excited over him. He may be an established star in the NHL but think of other players you could get that aren’t like Gaborik. By not like Gaborik I mean established Stars that aren’t Injury Plagued I mean look at this guy basically injured every year of his NHL career. I mean sure he puts up numbers but what if you picked up someone different who can put up numbers all season long without going down for be it weeks or months or the full year for that matter. Let us compare to other players who may not even be on the market but are established stars.
First I’d like to compare him to a guy by the name of Pavel Bure. Now I know there skill level probably does not compare. If you think about it though Gaborik is on pace for more NHL career point than Bure. Both have had injury plagued seasons. Now this comparing of Gaborik and Bure may not help much but it does give you an idea of what it’s like to be injury plagued player.
Now we move on to a player who has been not been very injury plagued if at all. His name is Ilya Kovalchuk This is the point i’m trying to prove. Kovalchuk has had one less NHL year then Gaborik and has 52 more career point. It just goes to show that it may be skill level that helps but if your injury plagued it don’t matter.
Which leads to my question to be answered? Why is Marian Gaborik creating so much buzz? Because regardless of how injury plagued he is he’s known as a star and will be recognized like one.
