He did look good on PP1 - but it wasn't the key to his success. He was strong during 5v5 play. So even if he doesn't get PP time (hopefully he makes a case for PP2 time), he still needs to deliver strong 5v5 play from the centre ice position.
Also, Adrian Dater has an article up talking about Tuukka Rask being an option for Colorado. I think that makes a lot of sense for them. I don't think he's right in what the cost for Rask would be though - I think he'd come at a pretty reasonable cost given the goalie market.
