Well he's a lot hungrier for the puck lately than he was at any point last year. That line has the chance to be a real solid trio for us and should take away a ton of pressure off of the Alfredsson line.

My worry is that he's got this extra jump in pursuit of the 1K point mark....and then he might lose interest. Not to take away from his game though, he's been outstanding. I hope he's always in pursuit of 1K points
