I'm a gophers rube, and love to tout the players...
That said, people who are saying he's by far the most skilled and most lethal.....I dunno.....
He is quick and does have a great snap shot especially, but I'm not sure if he's what everyone here is talking about.
I'm not sure if he was in the qmjhl he would have more pts then brassard, or if he was in the OHL he would outdo Little....
My point is he's really good, and I'm glad the gophers have him, but he doesn't seem to have that same magic and clutch goal scoring *yet* like Vanek had right from the get go as a Gopher.
I like him a lot, but I think some who haven't seen much, or any of him, are overrating him a bit...
Very good player, probably a top line winger in the not too distant future, but it also won't shock me if a staal, brassard, mueller, tlusty, okposo ends up just as good.
who knows..
