But I agree, there isn't anything particularly compelling as to why Horak has a better chance than the next AHL guy.
Actually with Shaw the Hawks figured they had a good bottom six guy...it's the offence that is a surprise.
Horak is going the other way needing to reshape himself from a junior scorer to two way pro. Not easy and many fail at it
