Watching the highlights this morning, there is the one play where Johnny had a partial breakaway down the left side and his shot was stopped by Reimer.
The initial breakout pass was in his feet, but the way he brought the puck up to his stick, basically without breaking stride or losing any speed was pretty impressive.
I know that is exhibit W of why he is awesome, but you see so many players mishandle a bad breakout pass or the speed they lose allows the defender to close on them. Johnny just kicks it up like it aint no thang.
