He was terrible, in Junior...years later he showed up in the NHL somehow. So you just never know. I would have eaten buckets of pubes on bets had I been asked if Boogaard would ever make the NHL.
Byfuglien did not show much NHL possibilities in Prince Albert.

If the guy was a football player at 6-7 241 at age 17 no one would assume that he was non-athletic......and would always be slow.
