I equate it to shiny bobble syndrome. Parsons was a highly touted junior goaltender, no better than Matt Keetley, Kevin Lelande, or Leland Irving, but the latest who played well as an older prospect in junior hockey. His first year in pro exposed all of those weaknesses identified by some on this board. He's got a long way to go as a pro, and he may never end up playing in the NHL unless his unbridled enthusiasm is controlled. He's a junior level goaltender with a number of bad habits to break.
