It's a tough read because Robertson is just so fucking young for his draft class. I would argue that his tools pop more than either's (better skater, slicker hands) did at the same age but getting a handle on where his offensive production slots is hard. Darcy was prolific in junior and Gallagher was legitimately very good
If you look at their draft year production, Robertson lags both by quite a bit
Darcy: 1.32ppg
BG: 1.13ppg
NR: 1.02ppg
Robertson is only a couple of days away from not having been eligible this draft. Had this been his D-1 season, this is how that would stack
Darcy: .5ppg
BG: .6ppg
NR: 1.02
Granted, Robertson would have roughly the same age advantage over those 2 here, that they had over him in the first comparison, but with a more pronounced advantaged offensively.
With that out of the way, Robertson is different than either. He doesn't play with the red misted rage that Darcy played with or the epic scumbaggery and trolling that Gallagher plays with. He's a little faster, a little slicker than either but not nearly as physical. So a good comparison...sort of, yeah.

I'm hoping he's our Brad Marchand.

I feel dirty wishing for a Marchy of our own though (obviously it would be amazing if Robertson turned into half the player he is, I just feel gross hoping for it)
