Something to Prove

Today, he’s 6-foot-3 and just finished his second season at the school where he dominated his league and suddenly caught the eye of scouts all over the NHL. By the start of this past year, he’d landed on NHL Central Scouting’s Watch List, which was the first time he actually began to believe his dream might have a chance of coming true.

Now, he’s being compared to Jason Spezza, Joe Nieuwendyk and John LeClair among others. He got a scholarship to Providence for next year and even finally got chosen by an OHL team a couple months ago.

From that article:

He had hockey sense, though. If you believe that some athletes have sports in their DNA, you’d have to believe he was blessed. His dad was a star at Cornell University. His grandfather carved out an 18-year pro-hockey career including stops with the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks in the ’50s and ’60s. His great uncle is Maple Leafs legend Red Kelly.
