One shift stands out to me where the puck went to Hughes point and he tried his spin move on Dube and Dube just gave him a decent shot to his back/ribs. Then the puck came around to him on the boards again and Dube hit him hard again.
Really liked it from Dube because it made him think twice about pinching from then on.

It’s what the league has been doing to Johnny for years now and I feel like it’s contributed to the decline in his game. When Johnny came in, he was like a forward version of Quinn Hughes, just dancing all over the place. Now, that spark or burst is gone. That daily abuse just wears on you.
