When the Karlsson trade went down I remember making a bad joke about how it was such a Pierre Dorion move to trade a Norris winner for a guy named Norris.

I didnt realize that Norris was so religous. Kind of reminds me of fisher that way.

I thought he showed a real spark, physically, against the Flames and that continued against the Wings today.

Hopefully he is gaining confidence in the shoulder so he can just play, but I thunk he is turning the corner.

That said, natural scorer. Another of our players who doesn't seem quite right yet scoring about .5 goals per game.

Best game from him this season, outside maybe of his first game back. Very promising.

I wasn't super worried about his offense but man was it good to see him getting engaged physically, tracking back on the puck, going into the corners, etc. Big relief.
Yeah, that's the part of his game that we really missed last year too imo, though the offense is nice too.

He did say in the post game that right now he's just focusing on playing a simple heavy game.

Focus on the defense first, then try to score goals.

What worries me is that I haven't seen him blast a one-timer yet.

That's a big reason why he scored 35G prior to getting his big contract.
