Hard to ''unsee'' that, thanks.I know one person who appreciates him thoroughly..View attachment 744610
Looks like an opening act at Stage AE
Lol…I’m really gonna miss Geno when he hangs them up…thankfully disses Taylor Swift on the playlist lol
Based on what?Slavin, one of the best #1 Dmen in the league, has impacted the game more than Malkin for a few years now.
Toffoli isn't a selke defender, Toffoli putting up the career numbers be did is actually a positive for Lindholm. Shows he makes his mates better with his 2 way game.
Gave me a decent scare there lolKnee injury flare-up confirmed
Those threads are hysterical.But we hear this every year. Some middling semi-star would be more valuable than Malkin. Last year it was Trocheck. Then he shit the bed in the playoffs.

Oh the Trocheck thread. Lol......Geno is done get what you can for him now and rebuildThose threads are hysterical.
3 ACLs here and 7 total surgeries since 2000 on my right knee alone. I elected not to have an ACL put back in on the last one in 2019 and have been fortunate since.Haha... I mean... I don't doubt his knees hurt. My knees were killing me at 37 and I had only gone through one major knee injury... not multiple.
Damn dude, you must have a insane pain tolerance. I hope you can put off knee replacement indefinitely, it is a mother. Way more involved than a new hip.3 ACLs here and 7 total surgeries since 2000 on my right knee alone. I elected not to have an ACL put back in on the last one in 2019 and have been fortunate since.
Still run workout and participate in some sports but it's definitely starting to finally catch up a little. Probably a good candidate for a robo leg some day
lol, come on Trocheck is no Slavin. Be serious. Slavin is clearly more valuable than Malkin, not sure what the argument could even be. An elite #1D is more valuable than Malkin at this point.Based on what?
You talk about these players having great two-way games when one can barely outproduce an enfeebled Dumo and the other can't outproduce a journeyman linemate who's about to be on his 5th team in 5 years. Clearly "one way" of their "two way games" ain't all that impressive.

I don't think it is a much pain tolerance, none of the injuries were really intolerable. You see many injuries to knees/ACLs where players finish games.Damn dude, you must have a insane pain tolerance. I hope you can put off knee replacement indefinitely, it is a mother.

Repeating "lol elite #1D" is not an argument.lol, come on Trocheck is no Slavin. Be serious. Slavin is clearly more valuable than Malkin, not sure what the argument could even be. An elite #1D is more valuable than Malkin at this point.

Repeating "lol elite #1D" is not an argument.
An elite "two way" #1D scores more than 27 points in a season. Pettersson outpaced that. I guess he's an elite "two way" #1D too because he can pace for 30 points and put up good analytics.
Seems rather subjective than objective, that's why I don't put much credence in those things.Slavin had 42 points the previous year. Slavin is a two way # 1 D.
Weird how Jake's previous production makes him a top winger, but Slavin's doesn't...
1. If they have better options, perhaps he's not as capable "two way" as he's been presented.Just going to chime in here and say according to hfboards Slavin is a top 10 defensemen at #10.
Slavin doesn't get power play time because they have better options. Just going to bring up though 2018 2019 he did get 5 power play goals when he was given 1:48 a game.
Letang got 6 goals this season with 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
But you got Burns on the squad so he is better offensively And on the PP
Anyways Slavin is among the best in the NHL for defensemen and I can see why in overall rankings he would be considered above Malkin. No disrespect to Malkin. One guy is winding down his career still being an amazing player and considered high tier.
Then the other guy Slavin being a top defensemen in his prime.
