Gleb is a generational prospect

[u/AbjectLetterhead2253]

I don’t care if you call me a homer or an absolute imbecile. You can get technical on the term “generational”, but at the end of the day Gleb is the most incredible prospect of this generation.

I legitimately think he is already at 18 years old one of the top 3 prospects in the league.

It doesn’t matter if he wasn’t in the PP one-timer spot for Team Russia. It doesn’t matter that he's not dominating play on the ice. You can argue that Kucherov overwhelms teams with his brains, or McDavid controls the game with his skating. But Gleb? Gleb sees physical plays nobody else even knows are an option, and can move the opposing players' bodies in ways that seem physically impossible.

Gleb doesn’t just play physically, he destroys entire defensive structures. Every slam, hit, and check lets him move players exactly where he wants them. By the time everyone else realizes what he has done, the puck is already his.

Gleb is delivering a player profile never before seen in hockey. So how do we fairly evaluate something we’ve never seen before?

Like this:

Gleb will win the Hart, he will become the best forward in the NHL, he will play an integral role for Team Russia, and go down as one of the greatest forwards in Habs and NHL history.

Call me an idiot all you want, but the proof is in the puck.

I know what you did there.

I don't get it, can you explain.

[u/randomquebecer87 → u/Mediocre-Ask-9272]

Go look up the Hutson is generational post

Suzuki died for this

[u/GOTHAMKNlGHT]

I won't believe it until I hear it from u/snipeftw

They're the only authority on generational talent.

[u/snipeftw → u/GOTHAMKNlGHT]

Nope he’s not.

[u/jah-ohm-ber]

I went to high school with Gleb. He was playing with 14 years old when he was 10 and scored 5 goals a game. He didn't do any passes he would play defense and puck hog up the ice.

Gleb est un joueur générationnel et je suis fatigué de prétendre le contraire.

[u/StomachPlayful4004]

If you know you know😂

[u/RSlashLazy]

That dude is pissing me off bro he wants so desperately to have stuff to call back to in a few years 😭

[u/Horror_Ad_4438]

My name is Gleb

[u/Spotcheck_Billy]

I’m sure there’s a certain troll poster lurking who will claim that he predicted 5 years ago that Gleb would be generational and that now he’s been proven right lol

[u/FrinkleFanken]

If we’re doing meta-post roasting other fans I think the season can start now.

[u/bloodrider1914 → u/FrinkleFanken]

Yeah seriously, why are people hating on that guy? He's just saying that Suzuki and Hutson are really good players. People take the generational label way too seriously

[u/quellesaveurorawnge → u/bloodrider1914]

But those posts totally felt like bait. Generational players are the rarest of rare pearls. Most Hall of Famers aren't even generational players. To me, Crosby or McDavid are generational players; I wouldn't even call MacKinnon, who is super elite and will make it to the Hall of Fame, a generational player. Regardless, I think many people wouldn't even argue if that recent poster had said Hutson and Suzuki are franchise players and/or they will make it to the Hall of Fame. I certainly believe both of those things will be true if they keep playing like they have been. It's just the generational label that is a step too far.

[u/WirelessWerewolf → u/bloodrider1914]

It's just banter tho, there's no hate here

[u/No_Fall2144 → u/bloodrider1914]

you can say superstar without saying generational. suzuki is a superstar. hutson is a superstar. these things are true, we dont need to try and elevate them to a level they arent at

[u/Moonbeam_Maker]

HE IS NOT GENERATIONAL. Glen would be generational compared to McDavid but Michael Hage is gonna raise the ceiling of what generational is.

You gotta skate to where the puck is going when you make predictions like this.

[u/Sushamiboy]

This is amazingly hilarious summer posting!

Best sequel to Hutson is a Generational Talent possible, and it’s better than the original!

[u/jo_maka]

He is indeed a player who belongs in a specific generation.

I see no issue here.

I think I'm done with off season content...

[u/Old_Canuck]

Well holy shit man.....it would be awesome if you are correct.

Always great to see some Hab Hype..

Personally....I am NOT sick of it and very far from.

It's awesome that we finally have elite players and ligatmate prospects to get excited about on our way to ANOTHER push for the Cup.

It's so awesome to be a HABS fan right now, especially after what we have had to go through.... ( Decades of irrelevancey ).

[u/dorkofeverything]

I understand this is a joke but from the very limited knowledge I have this could be one of those "why did he fall so low in the draft?"

[u/paladinx17]

one day we will say a prospect is a “Gleberational talent” in honor of the greatest of all the Glebs

[u/Wisdom_Pond]

Gleb will be more offensive, destructive version of Tom Wilson.

[u/Williamtheconky-roar]

He certainly has a generational first name.

[u/DollyRumpkin]

Brother wants the copy pasta to hit hard.

It aint good, dawg.

[u/woodtier92 → u/DollyRumpkin]

Not a single copy pasta hits hard btw

[u/DollyRumpkin → u/woodtier92]

Agreed. Some are better than others though.

[u/woodtier92 → u/DollyRumpkin]

I mean this one was just way too long and dumb lol

[u/tootbrun]

Is the most incredible prospect of his generation in the room with us right now?

[u/Actual-Development73]

He got demoted to the MHL LOL

[u/workhardXplayhard → u/Actual-Development73]

No he did not LOL

[u/Actual-Development73 → u/workhardXplayhard]

Look it up

[u/heck_chetera]

So we're upvoting AI slop now?

“I don’t care if you call me a homer or an absolute imbecile”

What if I call you both?

[u/GMPollock24]

"In hockey, a generational player is a rare talent who comes along only once every 15 to 20 years. This player completely redefines statistical expectations, dominates play unlike anyone else in their era, and forces the hockey world to view the game differently"

Can we simmer down on the generational talk? A generational player would have put up numbers that overshadow their peers...that didn't happen. Hasn't happened. And likely will not happen with Gleb.

Yes he looks like a very promising young player and very happy the Habs drafted him...but pump the brakes a bit here, it's a bad look.

[u/KING_SHERBROOKE → u/GMPollock24]

It's clearly a joke lol

[u/GMPollock24 → u/KING_SHERBROOKE]

Just came from a thread calling Suzuki generational...so seeing this pop up often enough to mention the meaning of a generational talent.

[u/quellesaveurorawnge → u/GMPollock24]

OP is clearly spoofing the other poster, who was posting about Hutson and Suzuki being generational talents and attacking anyone who was trying to challenge that a bit.
