he did choose that path.

Like you said, and the consistency issue we saw end of last year, even, I think we saw it where he was just engaged night in night out and not the points weren't always coming his way.

Like they are right now, but you could tell playing with Marco Rossi at the time last year, like those two guys were so dependable.

And yeah,

really took on a role when Kaprizov was out for half the season, when a lot of guys went down at that stage of the year last year.

Into this season, Matt Boldy has come in.

I mean, how old is he now?

Is he 25?

That sounds about right.

24, 25, whatever it is.

He is a certified man now.

It's no longer, oh, look at this kid.

It's look at this man.

Look at how this man plays hockey because he takes it upon himself each and every game.

especially after the start of the season.

He was on that top line with Kirill Kaprizov.

He got bumped down when Matt Zuccarello came back after his first time missing right at the start of the season.

But he drove that line, that second line with Eck, with Johansson.

And he hasn't looked back once.

To have that type of one-two punch...
