I would LOVE to hear more on your thoughts about geno!
geno FUCKINGGGGG malkin why are the only ppl who still talk and think about him our beautiful pens rpfers when he is still out there RIGHT NOW putting up 70 points a year with 0.5 knees and 30 games of a competent linemate in the last two seasons ...
anyway there is a serious answer for this. xenophobia ! it's always just been plain old xenophobia b/c "evgeni malkin" is a very very russian name and geno doesn't like to talk to media and didn't for a long time speak particularly good english* (*in public appearances) and well. when you have a temperamental russian guy as thee literal teammate of the canadian model of good boy-ness in sidcros then well. he's just some geno idccccc
-> that and the trouble of his initial crossing to america + the fact that he asked for more money in aav than sid did AND that sid is better is all a perfect storm of like. "malkin = not that good" sentiment.
when he IS that good. being better than sidcros is a fucking TASK like. you don't even need two hands to sum up the ppl on that list ok ... gretzky lemieux mcdavid jagr. jagr also really suffered from the same kind of "non-canadian + top 5 all time canadian teammate" as geno does LOL because i will also see ppl not put him up on this list but im getting out of hand here BACK TO GENO
here's a list of players almost-38 year old injury-plagued malkin has a higher points-per-game than:
jaromir jagr!
mitch marner
alexander ovechkin
david pastrnak
MARK MESSIER
mats sundin
paul kariya
pavel bure
jean beliveau
brett + bobby hull
COUNTLESS OTHERS
here's a list of players who have had more points in a single playoff run than geno did in 2009
wayne gretzky
mario lemieux
connor mcdavid
paul coffey
... not a very long list innit.
ANYWAY geno 4 evar... he's a first ballot hall of famer and a player we should all be so lucky to watch be dramatic as long as we have him.
oh wow this doesn't usually happen tbh. nice gesture by the islanders. you really don't see this every time a player is clearly retiring. says a lot about his character and his legacy.
matt martin trying to start something with Eyebrows St. Ivany. like...girl. this game doesn't mean anything. are you gonna get yourself hurt over a nothing game. jack st. ivany doesn't care. his ass is going on vacation.
