I have a sneaking suspicion that Dahlin wears the C. I predicted it when he was drafted based on his commitment, and compete levels that were reported back ghen.
Tuch certainly gives him a very strong run for the money, but IMO the future of the team is on Dahlin's shoulders going forward.

It’s gonna be Tuch imo
Do we really wanna give it to another “kid” again?
Didn’t work out so well for us last time

That was a funny one. To think someone could be a top 20 player all time in a sport 100 years old and be called overrated.

It's simply because he makes it look effortless even when he's busting his ass. Thomas Vanek had that same ability and was called lazy as well.

Slow your roll… just goes back to a comment 36 made earlier today… if he doesn’t want to talk about his service. He can talk about potential porta potty love children.

There is no way that Malkin is a top 20 player in league history.

He’s not that far off. His peak was ridiculous. Games missed hurts though

His era adjusted PPG is probably right up there

Without getting back into it, my full statement was that he could/should have been a bigger star in this league than he was as he had all of the tools. "Overrated" doesn't mean you aren't a great player, it just means that you aren't as good as your reputation suggests. At one point he probably was a top 10 player in the league but that ship sailed a while ago.

Dual Cs! It’s the last time this team was successful. Tuch and Dahlin both get a C.

- washedup20


36 points in the 09 cup run
18 points in the 16 cup run
28 points in the 17 cup run

Looks pretty available to me. Easily top 20 all time.

I doubt many ppl still see him as a “top10” player in the league
Not many 35year olds ever are

Malkin is over a ppg player this season though
16g-16a-32pts in 30games
That’s pretty good
