It makes his current success all the sweeter. And I hope he wins it all. Win the Calder, get into the playoffs and get more points next season.

Hes really earned it in spite of everything.

When people tell kids that if they work hard enough they can do anything they want, they're talking about this kid. Its a level of dedication that most people can only dream of.
