Has anyone else been strongly following the Hitmen/Rebels series so far? And if so, can you possibly confirm what I have been seeing from the Red Deer side of things...
That being that Turner Elson is the best player on the ice on any given night. I started watching the series excited to see Cody Sylvester show some skill and see how Matt Dumba stacked up in such a big tournament, only for both of these players to be VASTLY overplayed by Elson.
The stats can say what they do, but I would take Elson 10/10 times over Sylvester based on the games I have seen of them. I think this guy could sneak up on us as a good 3rd line winger in the future. Not bad for an undrafted free agent
