Sujet: Overrated Underrated and Best from Each Team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yet_another_armchair_gm</b></div><div>I would argue that Marchand is actually very solid defensively, and much more so than Pastrnak. Marchand has many more years of experience and has played on the PK his entire career while Pasta has yet to record a shorthanded point. If playing the PK is not an indication of defensive prowess, I'm not sure what is, unless the Bruins' management has been overvaluing Marchand for the last 7 years.

What constitutes "attacking well," and what do you mean by "retrieving pucks?" And what do you mean by "before?"

I'm not trying to claim that Marchand is head and shoulders above Pastrnak, nor that Pasta is way better than Marchand. Rather, I'm questioning your analysis that Pasta is a driving force behind Marchand's success, as I think exactly the opposite is true.</div></div>

Bam. Right here. Pasta is an absolute great player, and is an absolute machine offensively, but man is he not very good at defense. Marchand, on the other hand, is extremely defensively sound and doesn’t usually make many screwups.
