Aston-Reese?

6x Selke seems about right. How many Richard, Art Ross or Harts though?
If we’re gonna compare, then let’s peel it back a bit more…

Ovi has always been nothing but offense, so this isn’t surprising to me.

That’s pretty much what I’d expect, yep!

Ovi has always been offensively oriented. Granted when you are going to finish your career as potentially the greatest goal scorer of all time, your team can overlook that. It is like min-maxing in an RPG, you build your stats towards what you’re good in and try to dominate.
But I think it also shows just how Bergeron was a game changer in terms of being responsible in your own end. It is like you have a third defenseman. Oh, and he still had over 1200 games played and over 1000 points so he had longevity and could pull his weight in the offensive end. He may have been on my team’s biggest rival, but massive respect to all of that.

Hats off to you Malkin, seems all those complaints of 71’s poor defense is unsubstantiated

You don’t need to defend if the puck is in the opponents’ net

Is there a place we can see the entire chart with each bubble and who they are? I would love to look at this more deeply
