Matt Duchene: I’m Ready For Him to Step Up

It’s time for Matt Duchene to step up. The Avs highest paid player must be better this season. 21 goals and 55 points isn’t going to cut it.

I’m a big fan of Duchene. I had the same posters of Colorado Avalanche players on my wall as he did as a kid. He’s unquestionably happy to be part of the organization and there’s no denying his talent. And that’s why I want more out of him. I want him to be the undisputed face of the franchise and the leader of the organization.
