Way back in early October, before the regular season had even started, I wrote one of my first articles for this website about Matt Duchene’s troubles with consistency. And he made me look really smart to start the year, with one goal through the first 11 games and only 2 assists. But after an incredibly productive couple of weeks he now sits 4th(!) in the league in goals. That’s nothing shy of amazing.
Additionally Duchene has points in 15 of the last 20 games, including 6 multi-point games. He has surpassed Nathan MacKinnon as the points leader on the team and also leads the Avs in goals.
