Yeah, it's a very over-looked point. Not many rookies can line-up in power vs. power match-ups and still continually put up points at the rate Johnny has been able to.
Yes, he struggles some times - but that's part of the rebuild process. Johnny needs these hard minutes. He needs to learn how to play against top-end forwards and top-end d-men, because that's what he'll have to face going forward.
Patience is required.
