21. Doug Wilson on Ryan Merkley: We spent a lot of time with him. We asked him the tough questions, we liked the way he handled it…the answers he gave us made us feel comfortable looking him in the eye that he wants to be a great player and hockey is what he wants to do. He’s a young man, and watching him play he just has to channel some of his frustrations differently…We see a real high end to this player.”
Idk if anyone has posted this already but I think it’s fair to assume that Wilson did his due diligence on Merkley’s flaws. He wouldn’t have taken him if he didn’t think they could be fixed or at least mitigated.
