The guy's been playing hockey pretty much his whole life and is currently playing (quite well) in the best league in the world. He has received coaching from some of the best in the world. His current coaching team analyzes video and picks apart his game to show him things to improve on, what he's doing well, etc.
And you can tell by watching him play that his stick is too long. Seriously?
