The GoAvsGo defensemen stepped up big in the sudden absence of Sam Girard. And it sounds like they'll have to do it for the rest of the playoffs. via ryanohalloran
Second-pair defenseman Sam Girard departed after only 56 seconds of ice time when he was checked hard into the end boards by the Blues’ Ivan Barbashev. Girard, who taken to a St. Louis hospital, sustained a season-ending broken sternum, per coach Jared Bednar. That left the Avalanche with five defensemen. Devon Toews picked up most of Girard’s ice time , Cale Makar also played more and Bo Byram was plus-2.
Both players tumbled into Binnington, who skated gingerly off the ice and was replaced by Ville Husso. A potentially series-changing and series-defining development. Husso had the better regular season and started the first three playoff games so he’s plenty worthy, but Binnington was in the form that helped St. Louis win the Stanley Cup in 2019.Early on, coach Jared Bednar moved Gabe Landeskog up to the first line, joining Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen.
