"And Ekblad's partner has been pretty darn good as well. Plus-56, he lead all players last year in the NHL—that's Gustav Forsling. He was a waiver wire pickup from the Carolina Hurricanes and now he has signed an 8 year deal worth 46 million dollars. Paul Maurice said to me today, he thinks he's the best defensive defenceman on planet earth. And that is high praise! He says the way he closes the gap, the way he makes reads is next level."
