I totally saw the Blake Wheeler comparisons when I was watching Rantanen carry the puck last night. Looked like a total bull, and a lot more explosive than last year. Balance was always an issue with him, and I would imagine he put a lot of emphasis on that in training. Top-line looked totally fine to me, they obviously weren't playing to the best of their abilities either.
I thought EJ made a few boneheaded plays, which kind of surprised me. I'm honestly not a fan of the non-chalent defensive play in pre-season. I know it doesn't mean anything, but to me it's a chance to hone your craft against lower level players, and he was pretty careless compared to his usual self.
