Brian Rafalski wasn't a water bug, but he did pretty well. I'm pretty sure Fox's skating is just fine.
Here is what ISS said at the time...."A smooth skating, offensive defenceman who shows strong mobility and excellent vision".
Or Future Considerations..."using impressive top-end speed"
Or Redline...."Smallish defender is highly mobile"
As for his offense...
"Not since Brian Leetch scored 47 points in 37 games back in 1986-87 has an 18-year-old defender had this sort of offensive impact in college."
And his 59 points for the US National U18 team is a record by a blue liner.
It absolutely 100% sucks that we couldn't keep this guy.
