You have to give the Avalanche credit for picking him number 1 in 2013 which wasn't a great draft. Was he the undisputed #1 choice, I don't recall.
Not following the Avs to closely I first really noticed him here in the 2019 playoffs when they beat the Flames in 5 games. He literally took his team on his back and was just a beast which is what the still is.
He's destined to win a cup for sure.
