Happened to be talking to a guy recently who grew up with Getzlaf.

I asked him if Getzlaf was always dominant in hockey and he said his memory is that he never really stood out until he hit his teens and grew immensely.

No idea if that's true or not as I always think guys who become dominant in the NHL are probably pretty dominant from the minute they start hockey but interesting story nonetheless.
