He averages 1:40 per game less than Tanev and doesn’t play against the other teams top players.

EG is fine on a bottom pairing making 1- 2 million a year. I said this several times. Booze tried to shoehorn him into a top 4 role - he isn’t suited for it. He isn’t good enough.

Who's arguing he's a top Dman and getting tougher assignments than Tanev?

He is consistently playing more minutes now and doing well, like most of his team. That's a testament to Sutter and guys buying in.

Same situation here. Same bunch of guys as before, markedly different results.
