Pretend it's yesterday.
Last Season
It was a little bit of a down year for Matt Duchene, producing only 21 goals and 34 assists. It's a big step down from his 70 point season the year prior. But if you think about it, this was kind of the return of the Curse of Duchene's Winger.
Not only did he lose a very productive Duchene Wing to trade in the offseason (PA Parenteau), he lost an even more productive one when Paul Stastny walked to the Bloos, leaving Ryan O'Reilly to fill his abandoned centre slot.
