Running out of gas

Not surprising that a an 18 year old playing in
New country
New league
New language(s)
Away from home
Demanding travel in the "Q"
Trying to keep up on school

might be running out of a gas in his first season in North America.

It might have been easier if he had played in the OHL around the Toronto, but if can survive three years in the Quebec League, any travel after that in the AHL or NHL is easy.

A few off seasons training with some other prospects....and for his sake and the Leafs sake hope he can reach his potential.

Some other European prospects stay in Europe for a years and I can't blame them. Hey but to move to such a new situation as an 18 year old...good for him.

There was a possibly a glimpse into the future of Marty and Sosh jamming the net for a goal in the rookie tournament. I like it.
