Norris is gonna surprise sens fans. He's got the tools.Norris scored 7 goals and 23 points in 37 games in his first NCAA season.
As a comparison, let's look at some other prospects that project to be 2nd/3rd liners at the NHL level and their performance as NCAA freshmen:
Colin White: 19 goals and 43 points in 37 games
Shane Bowers: 17 goals and 32 points in 40 games
Luke Kunin: 19 goals and 32 points in 34 games.
Then let's look at the blue-chip 1st line guys:
Jack Eichel: 26 goals and 71 points in 40 games
Clayton Keller: 21 goals and 45 points in 31 games
Brock Boeser: 27 goals and 60 points in 42 games
Norris is not even in the conversation as a 1st line prospect like the Keller's and Boeser's, and based on performance, he had a very disappointing season compared to guys more in his range.

I am surprised. Good for Balcers .. hope he gets in a game and shows well. I wonder if he plays with Duchene and White goes back with Tkachuk and Stone
What? White has been separated from Tkachuk and Stone? (haven't watched a game in a while)

Edit: I guess not , if it stays like this
Paul - Tierney - Balcers would have been nice as a 4th line.

I don't mind both being separated from Stone. It is about high time that we see how good these 2 actually are without Stone. Stone can inflate anyone's stats.
