Roobroeck is 19, but yes, the guy he beat is 17. He moves well for a big guy, but I don't see him beating many defenders that way at higher levels. Hopefully he's learning to use that size to create room for himself and his linemates.Granted this is a 20 year old against 16 and 17 year old kids, but that highlight is why I think the Rangers took a chance on him. His skating and size give him a shot at making the NHL one day.
Yup. Evgeny Grachev scored a ton of similar goals. It is worth noting that Vince, I think, did say that he turned some heads in the early days of camp in the sense of "whoa, who's that guy" kind of way. Would be nice if he can develop into a checking line forward.2k beat me to the punch, that's the most OHL goal I think I've ever seen
