Why isn't the hyperbolic in regards to Markar an issue for you? Your post insinuates its one sided, and it most certainly is not.
I have yet to see anyone say Makar literally made the best play in history or is guaranteed to win the next Norris
The EK boosters in this thread keep passing these things off as if they should be commonly accepted takes and just call people haters when they question them
The makar hyperbole can be a bit much but it's not coming at the expense of his competition and is grounded in reality rather than maybes. Saying Karlsson was being called the best player in the world and on his way to another norris when he played less than 20 games, but not affording any other dman in the league that kind of benefit, is just goggles.
Ek is the only player on this board who can play 50 bad/average games due to inconsistency or injury but when he's dominant in 20 it's because he's the guy who is dominant in 20 games and not the average of the two. It's insane what kind of alibis the guy has gotten his whole career, and that when any other dman including makar has a awesome
