Loved watching him when he was at his best and simply wheeling, almost effortlessly away from trouble and a pretty good passer. When he was at his best, like he seemed to be last season.
Absolutely have seen both he and Gio cut off McDavid on one his high speed on the left wing and then cut towards the net rushes. Brodie can do it and likely still can. Gio? lets hope he has a renaissance year!
