Defending Big D has a good write up on our most beloved Frenchman and it got me thinking about his impact come playoff time. He has all those GWG's this year, so it's not like he's some goon who can't play. He brings a ridiculous amount of intensity every shift and can be an impact player at times. Will he be a key player or even an x factor come playoff time? He has an uncanny ability to get under the oppositions skin and get them off their game. I've noticed that he targets the impact players for the opposition and routinely draws matching penalties to get them off the ice and their game. Can he and will he bring the same intensity during the playoffs and can he keep us off the PK during key junctures of the game by not taking bad penalties?
