Hunter?!?! Is that you!?!?
The Flames may end up regretting not drafting Shinkaruk from time to time. But in the big picture, No.
I also have seen him play alot. He is fast! He has decent hands and a decent shot. Does he go to the hard areas? No. Is he a perimeter player amongst boys, yes.
Lets see him play against men and see how far his speed gets him when he never drives the net.
He fits right in with the Nucks. Never goes to the dirty areas. Is gonna get man handled and whine about it. And then start to dive to draw penalties on guys who are simply bigger and stronger.
Best comparable- Mason Raymond. But I think Raymond has more grit than Shinkaruk ever will.
And the Flames wont regret it, we drafted the Anti-Shinkaruk. His name is Keegan Kanzig!
