Top pair #1PP guy

He’s filling that role. He is not either of those things. There’s a difference.

Sure just casually scoring at a 47 point pace, which would easily put him top 30 in D scoring, while playing in all situations.

Nothing like that 47 point pace. Clearly one of the best 30 D in the league. I stand corrected.

[rataylor22]

Shrug. Just playing 25 minutes a night scoring at a 45+ point pace on a top 5 team in the entire league. Clearly a #5

I do think his increase in scoring is a case of a rising tide lifting all boats, as his IPPs are comparable to what they were before. But Andersson owners should enjoy the ride, as his "spot" seems to be safe for at least the immediate future.

tyson barrie led all dmen in pts last season so he must be the best. what do you mean he sucks now? lol. i say this all in jest.

from my point of view rasmus is on pp1 and on the right side top pair cause they dont have a better option for either job at the moment. only a 45 pt pace when johnny hockey might get to 110 this season? who are the other righty dmen on the team? *checks* defensive stalwart chris tanev and erik gudbranson. not a high bar to clear there.

for a righty dman at 4.5m per season though...... all rasmus needs to do is stay healthy, eat 20 mins per game and be a net slightly positive on the ice.

Wow I thought I was the most stubborn person on these forums but even I admit my stupid takes were stupid when threads like this get bumped.

[rataylor22]

Anyways you guys are right definitely not a top pair defenceman

Notably lots of teams can play have a full right side of #5 or worse D and also be a top 5 overall team.

Raytroller trying to stroke their ego and it backfires.

Funny they never even shared a conviction on the topic, but chose to make backhanded comments at others who did. Another fine example of the contributions by Raytroller on dobberhockey. ��

Is it too soon to draw comparison to Alec Martinez??

I wish my attempted insults could be this clever.

Big ups on going a different direction than “rat”. Now if only the troll could learn what trolling was…maybe he can look at his own post for an example.

One did it after signing a contract, the other when playing for a new one.
