I will agree that if a prospect is considered a “bad” skater by the time he’s in junior, he will never be a “good” skater. Most teenagers though, are not fully developed yet, so they need a few years to develop their leg strength to NHL standards. I have faith in Perreault, because he has a good base to work with, but I don’t think he’s ever going to be a burner.
