Drouin has better dekes and hands than MacKinnon, but I think MacKinnon's vision got underrated due to playing at such a high pace, instead of being the guy who slows the game down.
Happy to get a win. Even happier to know that EJ is back for the next game.
That was a fun game to be at. Pepsi Center was close to full. When Varly went BAMF at the end of the game, the crowd was nuts, maybe the loudest it's been all year.
Benoit is seriously struggling. I wonder if he possibly comes out of the lineup with EJ back in.
Go get a top 4 defenseman and this team could do some real damage.

I thought the Avs played a better game than the score (and the shot totals) implied. Avs were rolling four effective lines tonight, each one had stretches where they were pinning Phoenix in their own zone. That was the best game I've seen Bordy play in a long while.
Also a monster game from Max "Don't Call My Kid Spartacus" Talbot. The third line was far, far more effective with him on the wing.
Defense definitely needs EJ back, but the win was all the more impressive in that it was done without him.
This. For the first time in a while bordy looked pretty good. He had a couple great shifts in the offensive zone followed by a HUGE hit. Looked like he was skating a little better too.

It's great how foolish the media looks now after their inane "Varly's confidence shattered, ruined for life!" olympic crap. Glad Roy is mocking them for it.
I'll say it again, that pass from Landy was awesome! Could have just fired it on net, but had the presence to know Paulie was there and put it right on his tape. What a job he's done developing that side of his game.
