Alexey Marchenko isn't a flashy defenseman and he doesn't usually make the highlight packages. What he does is a lot of really smart, effective things have a big impact on the game. He's a quiet, shy, unassuming person and those traits carry over into his play, but when you watch him closely on the ice, there's a lot to appreciate. In the game against the Arizona Coyotes on December 5th, Marchenko made a lot of great plays that went unheralded. Let's take a look at just a few of the Marchenko highlights from that game and break down why they were so good.
