At the start of the season, we had faith in Sam Malinski as an everyday defenseman but wondered about his offensive ceiling. That seems to have been a little off the mark — he’s top 10 among D-men in Offensive Rating and top 20 points per 60, ahead of guys like Charlie McAvoy and Noah Dobson. Whoops. His defensive impacts have been completely solid, too. Nice to see something go the Avs’ way for a change this season.
