During the Colorado Avalanche’s 4-0 win against the Montreal Canadians last night, Matt Duchene was a frequent topic of discussion by Altitude TV analysts Mike Haynes and Peter McNab.
As usual, Dutchy was flying; protecting the puck down low, dangling the puck with his speed and quickness and winning 71% of his faceoffs.
Although Duchene finished with zero points, he was close to hitting the twine more than a couple times, including a backhand that bounced of the inside of the post.
After each of these misses that could’ve easiliy amounted to a hattrick, Hayne’s and McNab joked about Duchene’s obvious frustration shown by his strong body language.
