Did we expect him to be on our No. 1 power-play unit at this stage of the season? Maybe, but only as an interim thing or if we needed a spark or whatever. Certainly he's secured himself as an offensive player on our team.
It's terrific. We secured a playoff spot, that's all it is. We have a lot more hockey to play in the regular season, never mind making the playoffs.
