Impressing Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock is no easy task, but there is one player who manages to impress every time he is on the ice. "To me, he's the best two-way player in the world for sure," Babcock told Ansar Khan of Michigan Live. "There's other guys close to as good but no one does both (offense, defense) as good. He's a gifted, gifted guy. He has the skill to wow you and the determination to shut you down." The 37-year-old has seven points across his last three games, but it's his two way play that has earned him the Selke trophy three times. In 47 games this season, he's contributed 21 goals - the most since 2010-11 - and 28 assists while sitting at plus-11. We're just glad he's on our side.
