I always thought Ekholm was an A++ defenceman, but my appreciation for his play is getting even higher.. he just erases guys, routinely turns opposition rushes and cycles into turnovers.. without him as a D partner I suspect Bouchard's improvement never happens.. allows Bouchard to breath.. even though he still gets brain cramps.. but far fewer recently.
If there were a Ekholm-type RH defencemen available to pair with Nurse.. we'd have an amazing top 4 D.
Montreal will be a tough out.. they always play well at home.
