When thinking about Matthews Mckinnon or Mcdavid, only Mckinon is similar type of player. Other 2 are more offensive players and Barkov is allroud player. Of those 3 only Mckinnon is similar type allrouder but more an offensive type player.

Anyone who follows the Eastern Conference knows how good Barkov is.

1:31 Laced his SCATES??? lol

never heard of him, nice video

Barkov. THE, Captain who always gonna play for the team. Not for her points or whatever statistics, just for the team. Captain. Also, team Finland Captain for no doubt. As long as he play. Cheers.

Love these. Very interesting!

Skates** 😅 1:33

Why does this feel like some AI shit edit: lol it very, very much is

Why does this sound like an AI video

As an Islander fan, I'm glad we got a sniper. We got enough playmakers in the top 6 & need more shooters not passers. Really hope this praise is justified & the video ages even half as good as you say he is.

Dude, Makar is good but not even close to Niklas Lidstrom.

i feel like they never talk about him here in finland, its always "mikael granlund this, sebastian aho that, mikko rantanen also" but very rarely media speaks about barkov. i feel like even players like kasperi kapanen, artturi lehkonen and teuvo teräväinen gets media coverage than barkov.

Defensiveman 😂😂. Never heard that one

Him

He's pretty damn good but nobody comes close to Bobby Orr. Orr won 2 scoring titles and had 6 straight 100 point seasons. It's too bad injuries ended his career at 27.

Two years in AHL,Get used to North American ice measurements and the grind of older bitter men who can’t quite make the big league!

Not a chance.

С.Барков, мне напоминает П.Дацюка, возможно он не так эффектен как Паша, но в чём то он похож. Мягкая манера игры, хорошее чутьё , выверенные пасы. Временами действительно Саша похож на Дацюка, но в наше современное время. Короче, Саша Барков, это Дацюк на минималках ( Саша ещё молод, так что у него ещё есть время для прогресса )

It's a no-brainer to sign Florida. Chance to win and likely good chemistry. Plus he can concentrate on scoring with defensively exceptional centers. Plus 8,6M+ cap hit is ok, he would do nothing with the extra 1-2M he might have gotten somewhere else.

“Cementing himself as one of the N.F.L’S elite 2-way Centers” …… yeah the guy said that in a hockey video about one of the great hockey players …….. I know they hire guys off the street to voice over this shizz … but who’s the editor …? I actually edited my own comment to make a point because I screwed up quote of the narrator

Still I keep seeing Barkov being connected to being Underrated? When it's gonna actually end?

Nice analysis. Sabres fans are gonna love Helenius!

why flyers skipped him?

Usually when a player falls that far there's a better reason than "one dimensional" I wouldn't bank on this guy until we see how he handles the pro game

he´s gonna be great for buffalo. Basically right handed sebastin aho.

His play reminds me of Sebastian Aho, but he still has a long way go. Hopefully the Sabres treat him right.

Konsta might be interesting, but I feel bad for him going to Buffalo. Very poor organization.

I think Helenius will be very interesting to watch, come training camp. He could be another Benson type player, but the Sabres don't need another Benson type player just yet. They do need good players but right now they have built their roster to get into the 24/25 playoffs. With an open space for perhaps 1 prospect to make the jump. GMKA is kind of all in on this year to make or break to get to the playoffs. Myself, I would love to see Helenius grow for atleast another 1 to 2 years. I think AHL would be the best bet to do that, but having him back in his homeland for another year would be good for him also.

No offense to this kid but no Sabres fan has the will to give a shit about another prospect. Improve the NHL roster and make the playoffs.

Great info

Nice video. Konsta will be a stud.

Think about this: Nemec, Hughes, Hamilton, Casey, Silayev. Just those 5 names alone, should strike fear in the NHL. The Devils, haven’t even begun to scratch the surface of what’s to come.

As a Devils fan defensive dmen should not be drafted this high hope he is worth the pick

Born in August 2026?

Good drinking game: drink everytime you hear Barkov is underrated.

Mister Sixteen 🔥🔥🔥

Born 2026? So he isn’t born yet? 😝

The Islanders had Anders Lee score 40 goals in 2017-2018, it's been 6 years, not decades

Konsta will never have a real nhl career

I don't think he's particularly good enough at anything other than hockey IQ. Lacks elite speed and skating, lacks elite shot and skill, hands etc, lacks elite size and strength. I feel like he's too small to be an effective third line two way forward like Lundell in Florida(who is bigger and smoother and more skilled)and will lack the offensive upside because of lack of nhl skill. I think it would be great to get him to Rochester this season and see how he adjusts to North American game and develop him slow down there to ultimately be used as a good trade piece for the Sabres when they are finally ready to complete for the playoffs. I really don't like this pick for Buffalo given the amount of forwards of similar size and stature. Buffalo would have been wiser to stay at 11 given the defensive high end depth in this years draft. Defensive prospect depth is what this team lacks considering how young their D core is in on the Sabres roster maybe they don't feel the need to have a defenseman in the pipeline but to trade back and miss out on Zeev Buium or Sam Dickinson is a pretty big loss in my opinion. Time will tell.

O Captain, my Captain.

Utah will win cup before buffalo every player they draft or trades for leaves and wins cup with other team . Like the bills keep Josh Allen for ticket sales and new stadium. Poor management and coaching

Sasha Barkov NHL All-Star Game 2018,2023 Lady Byng Memorial Trophy 2019 Frank J. Selke Trophy 2021,2024 Stanley Cup champion 2024 Smells like hockey hall of fame. And he's 28.

I knew my captain was good, but he’s also an NFL Center????

I really would like to know how the word "underrated" slipped into this title. Barkov is known everywhere and praised everywhere. Face of the nhl.

NFLs two way center 😂😂😂

4:22 NFL 😂😂😂😂😂

At one point you said NFL instead of NHL

Two Lady Byng's, Two Selkes, and now a Cup. If he stays consistent during his contract, he is a HOF strong candidate.

I'm surprised ESPN didn't talk about him more, especially since he was second in Conn Smythe voting. He was sensational for Florida.
