I wasn't really impressed with Penner, but I had made the incorrect assumption that he was older (usually try-out invitees are older guys that were never drafted).
Now knowing that he is only 18 and still playing junior, I admit my mistake and have changed my view of him. He showed quite a bit of spunk and game for a 1995er (like only Kanzig, Klimchuk and Rafikov in the Flames' system).
Will be interesting to watch his progress.
