Great article. Nothing can surprise me about JAD's character.
He certainly didn't get the u18s bump, and he got **** on for his 0 points, but I still think he's a real player and have always been a fan. I actually thought the first couple games he was one of Canada's better players, and probably deserved a few points. I think he's ideally more a complimentary, off-puck, quick strike type, and his fit with two other complimentary off-puck players was odd. Just wasn't playing his game, because he's a shooter and wasn't shooting. Game slipped as the tourney went on, as did the team's, and I imagine it got to him a bit wearing the 'C' too. Probably will just make him more determined, if that's even possible. Likely he's a 2nd rounder now, but he'll be a real solid one. Seen him enough to not let a few iffy games on an iffy team color my perception and still have him at the tail end of my personal top 30.
