From a development standpoint...this has been almost the perfect storm.
He is a go to guy who has delivered in spades for a top junior team. He has excelled in his role, in every way.
He went thru some adversity with the concussion and responded like a winner.
He plays with confidence and is a 3 zone player...who has consistent focus and intensity.
He is getting a brief look at the NHL game for a couple of weeks. So far..so good!
He will be driven going into camp, knowing he has what it takes.
