I don't see him as overly quick, not the best hands, skating is ok. He doesn't really hit or even lean on his opponents.
Face off's. 36%.
1 pt 5games.
I'm not sold on him yet.
Give it a couple weeks and it will be a more fair assessment of just what is he to this team.
Yep, everybody's anointing him the next Joe Thornton because of a few good shifts.

Every post in here is cautious optimism that he may be improving and be able to hold an NHL spot. Thank goodness you came along to quell that tsunami of unbridled homerism.

Let's all go back to hating the team, these good vibes are icky. Trade Glencross. squawk
