Now that he's the go-to guy on his team, I'm looking forward to seeing how he handles Drouin, MacKinnon, Frk and Fournier from Halifax, Hall, Scheifele and Camara from Barrie, and Stransky, McColgan and Ferland from Saskatoon.
So much fire power in this Memorial Cup coming up. Going to be fun to watch. My prediction is it'll be a Halifax/Portland Final with Portland just squeaking past the Mooseheads for the Mem Cup.

But by the end of the WJ's he
was the go to guy.
Watch the semi-final game again if you ever get the chance. He was out against Yakupov every shift 5 on 5 and absolutely shut Yak down. The only time Yak was visible in that game was the two PPs, and Wotherspoon wasn't on the ice with him.
