I think he'll get there in 2 or 3 seasons but we need to be patient with him. He's done better than a lot of rookies would but needs time.
Isn't that the most frustrating part? By the eye test they looked fine until two suspect calls and some bad luck tipping another puck into our own net has us in a hole once again.

At some point the bounces will even out. At least they aren't playing like trash. They can still get back in it.
