Zach Werenski is back on the ice and it appears as if he didn’t miss a beat after taking a puck to the face in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Werenski suffered a facial fracture on the play and missed the end of his team’s season in the playoffs. Now, life’s starting to get normal again and he’s testing his limits on the ice. While he finished the season as a Calder finalist this season, there’s no doubt he’ll want more from himself and his team next season.
Hopefully we see some dangles like this one next year because this was just filthy.

It’s not as if this is a new move for NHL players, but we can’t help but be amazed with how smoothly Werenski pulls it off. As we said above, he didn’t end up winning the Calder this season, but did win a BarDown award – and maybe he could win best dangle next year if he can show off some more moves like this one.
