Nick Suzuki is the 3rd star of the week in the NHL

The Canadian has won his four games since returning to play.
And if there’s one who deserves to have flowers thrown at him, it’s Nick Suzuki.
The CH captain participated in his team’s four victories, collecting at least one point in each game. He’s been in shape since the end of the 4 nations
Suzuki’s efforts are not going unnoticed.
He was named the 3rd star of the week in the NHL thanks to his seven points (three goals) collected in just three games.
A nice mention for the captain

CH’s #14, after 60 games played this season, claims a total of 61 points.
This puts him in 11th place in the NHL among center players, tied with Tim Stutzle and Brayden Point.
For a guy who’s not seen as a 1st center by some, I think that’s more than respectable
Ultimately, it’s certain that Suzuki is motivated right now.
He was ignored by Team Canada, he saw his peers win gold
And he would have liked to help that team make it to the end.
Moreover, the 4 nations games presented at the Centre Bell gave him a taste of returning to the playoffs in Montreal, as can be read in an article by Arpon Basu
He tasted the playoffs in 2021, but it wasn’t the same due to the pandemic.
The Centre Bell was not packed
And the captain has never been able to fully experience the playoffs in the city.
Maybe that’s why he’s been in great shape lately
His team is in the running for a playoff spot and he’s doing what it takes to help the cause

And I have the impression that he’ll be ready when the time comes.
Especially after seeing the Centre Bell be so loud for Canada’s games at the 4 Nations Confrontation
In a hurry
– Beautiful goal
