Jets fan coming in here boys and girls.
I watched the game tonight, wanted to see how Bogo was doing. Looks like the same consistent Bogo we saw in Winnipeg.
I'm really pulling for Zach. When the team relocated to Winnipeg, Zach didn't want to play for the team(players, and Atlanta org), his game was a total trainwreck. I remember there being rumours of the Altanta coaching staff really picking on Zach. He himself later amitted that if he made a single mistake he would pretty berated on the bench by the coaching staff. Over the years, Bogo has been fun to watch as he's transformed into a really good, solid, shut down guy, moves the puck early and often, and hits like a Peterbilt. He can skate like the wind and i really feel that once he matures emotionally and mentally, he'll be a confident offensive player.
Here in Winnipeg, Zach had always been prone to injury, which always turned out to be some sort of a pulled muscle. It was known that Zach liked to hit the gym hard, and looked sort of like a body builder. The training staff believed that his injuries were a result of pushing himself too far and his muscles were wound up and then would pull easier. Last season i know he did change his workout routine and its obvious just to look at the guy, hes still got all the size and athletic ability, just not as super shredded. Since then his only injuries have been the sort of odd freak accidents during the play (puck off the inside of the boot type plays).
When i heard Zach was traded I was instantly a tad choaked up, i know you guys have a great player there, and an awesome guy too!
