If he fails it won't be because he's like Brendl - Brendl failed because he actually had horrible hockey sense, was lazy, and the bulk of his WHL goals were "junior quality goals". In other words, the way that he scored goals was never going to translate to the big leagues. Frankly, anyone that watched him closely during his junior career could see it.
Sven won't bust because of poor hockey sense or laziness. In fact I don't think he will bust at all - but if he does, it won't be due to those reasons.
