M. Frost vs J. Farabee

[Hahahax]

Hey!

I did a similar poll on here between Sanheim and Patrick a couple months ago and your fan base was one of the most helpful so here I am again with a new poll! I could post this in the poll section, but I'd rather have the opinion of fans who see them play a lot than the opinion of randoms.

So here we go: Which player do you expect to have the bigger impact over the next 5 years?

Thanks a lot for your input!

This is such a tough question.

This is such a tough question.

It's why I'm asking here, you're the closest thing to a good answer I'll get!

I legit need time to think about it lol

Frost has higher ceiling
Farabee has lower floor

I just dont know...ahhhh

 

[Striiker]

Frost is probably the closest thing to a future-Giroux we have.

 

[FlyerFaithful17]

I think Frost is more dynamic, and will be better in a few years.

 

[flyersnorth]

I voted Farabee. Even though he’s younger, I think he will benefit from more top 6 ice time than Frost.

 

[freakydallas13]

Voted Farabee, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Frost absolutely take off.

 

[TCTC]

Farabee seems like the type of player who could play on any line and succeed. He could be a lot like Lindblom in a couple years. Frost is more dynamic and probably will be the more exciting player.
I voted Farabee because I expect him to be the more consistent player of the two.

Omg you're so terrible, Jesus

 

[deadhead]

Frost lacks the instincts and body control of Giroux, Brink is closer.
Frost is more of an undersized speed center, and he should be an offensive force.

Farabee is going to be the better player because he has the high IQ of elite players, once he fills out he'll be able to use his skill package at both ends of the ice..

this is harder than the Schenn vs Couts poll.

Also...both at 6ft tall

I'm not voting because somebody will dig up this thread just like with that couts schenn poll

I don't mind them digging it up.....I was on the right side!

Frost. Higher ceiling, more skill, plays a more important position.

 

[Stizzle]

Frost. More dynamic and plays a premium position.

 

[deadhead]

Couts ain't dynamic, he just gets the job done. Same with Stone.

For someone who talks about size, I think Farabee is lacking “something” compared to Couturier and Stone. It might just be 4 inches and 50 pounds. They’re also arguably the best 200ft center and winger in the league. You might as well compare Frost to Point, by that measure.

Yeah, I don’t see the Coots/Farabee comparison.

 

[Adtar02]

Voted frost. Think he may have the higher ceiling. Really like farabee. Really hope these two get to play together like g and voracek. Although Patrick would probably be fun with farabee too.


Edit. Was just thinking.

G - coots - voracek
Farabee- Patrick - tk
Linblom - Frost - Hayes/???

As the top 9 in the future.

 

[Flyer lurker]

Frost higher ceiling vs Farabee higher floor. I went Bee but would love to be wrong because it means Frost is that good.

Farabee is 20, he should fill out the next few years and end up something like 6'1 190+.

My comparison is style, really smart players often don't look dynamic because instead of furiously skating to make a play, they're already at the right spot. Some players have the knack of anticipating the play and being in position to disrupt on defense or make something happen on offense - and I think Farabee is one of those guys.

 

[Striiker]

I like how simply being bigger = higher floor.

Frost is also someone praised for being smart and good defensively, same as Farabee. So it's not as if we're comparing some midget who can only score vs a well rounded giant.

 

[flyersnorth]

Love watching Farabee. He's a TK in the making, and he even has some of the TK snarl!

I saw a clip today with Hayes playing keep away. Haha, gotta say, I miss seeing that.
