And what did they fucking do.... they made it worse by putting him in the box (and yeah, it was a trip). :-)
Seriously though, that guy is on a fucking mission.
It's really something to watch. Such a great skater. But he has incredibly good puck control on top of it. And great team awareness. Tough to say he hasn't been one of the best this season. [Reply]
Hope you're all savoring this shit. Arguably the two best players on the planet in a once 3-1 and now 5-5 game going to OT for the Avs' chance at their first SCF in over 20 years.
