Regardless, this kid sounds like alot of fun, and tons of potential

Most of us knew that Iguchi, despite his skill, was always a longshot. At least DuPont already has sufficient size and seems to have optimal development circumstances.

Iguchi is so not comparable to this, nor is Norway. haha.
But ya, still a lot of hockey to go for him. His P(S) is rising but its definitely not 100% for sure.
All to say is he's doing special sh%t and has been for a long time and real hockey people (those who get paid) know it and are saying the same thing. Just keep your eyes out.
