I honestly believe I could do what Big Nicky Z is doing right now for Calgary. I'm only 2 inches or so shorter, about the same weight, and I too am perfectly capable of throwing no-look backhand pizzas right up the middle from behind my own goal line.
But hey, we finally found a LHD partner who can break Smokin' Tanev. Sub-30% xGF for the pair thus far - granted, sample size of 2 GP but that's hard to do beside one of the best stay-at-home blueliners in the game ffs.
Something's not making sense out here. I think it's a lot messier behind the scenes than they're letting off.
Also...holy hell this avatar hasn't aged well at all
