Sens like those older guys.. What else should Rossi have done this year as such an old player... You realize there are a number of 2001 late birthdays close to the cut off this year in the top 15.
3 - 4 months doesn't mean much either.
3-4 months?
He'll be 19 on Sept.23.
Raymond will be 19 at the end of march
Perfetti 19 end of January
Drysdale 19 beginning of April
Interesting to note Jack Quinn is also 19 Sept 19
For me there's too many question marks.
1. Can he improve his speed?
2. How will he be used within our lineup?--Do you see him supplanting L. Brown/J.Norris?
3. The disparity with his point totals vs weaker competition/stronger teams
The fact that he's almost a year past when he COULD have been selected is interesting.
Like , where would he have gone in last year's draft?
For me even the eyeball test is sorta lacking. Like if I watch tape between Rossi/Perfetti/Raymond--who appears to be the more dynamic player?
I'm not anti-Rossi....like I said earlier I think he's talented.
But for me he's in the 6-9 range.
