He has a good supporting line he has 2 of the best guys on the team with him, Roy and Maxim, are arguably the best offencsemen on the team consistently.

I have been impressed with Pailles and Mairs recent efforts.

I played hockey for 15 years, he is out of shape and does those shitty penalties becuase hes out of gas and cant catch them so he resorts to getting a penalty.

If you cant catch them, you have to trust that your teammates will.

Like my coach always said, you will have a minute maybe 90 second shift, I want you ready to run at full steam for 4 solid minutes.

In doing that, we never ran out of juice even at the end of our shift.
