Went from being Over-Confident to having no confidence IMO.
Think after his great play in the Finnish league after recovering from his injury that he'd come to the NHL and make an immediate impact.
It didn't happen, he lost confidence, and then Sutter came and he really seemed to lose all confidence in himself as a hockey player.
He hasn't even been great at the AHL level this year.
I think he just needs to forget this season even happened, come back and refocus this offseason. Try to have fun playing hockey again.
