Yesterday was the first game he was split up from Val Nachushkin and both of those guys went on to separate lines and, and they both impacted it defensively.

It's, it's insanely impressive what he's done this year.

And, and,

I think the abs were criticized a lot for giving him the contract.

They gave it in the summer.

And then halfway through the season, Jared Bednar, I think we didn't even ask him about like the contract.

We just said, how well is Brock Nelson been?

And it had been like around the time when one bird got 6 million and Dvorak got like five and a half or whatever he got from Philadelphia.

And Bednar is like, he's been good.

A lot of people criticize Chris McFarland when he signed that deal.

Look what other quote unquote, second line centers are getting now.

So yeah,

I think they made the right gamble, they made the right move, and it's well-deserved.

We all know Nick Suzuki's going to win it, but it's a well-deserved finalist award there for Brock Nelson.

correct on both.

Most goals for, lowest goals against, best PK.

Fun fact, who's the last team to have the most goals for and the least goals against?

That's correct.

It's the 2011 Vancouver Canucks.

It hasn't been done in that long.
