Thompson is just a weird story all around. Decent college stats, did not much with the Chicago Wolves, a very pedestrian start with St. Louis, and poor numbers in San Antonio. Gets traded, has average numbers in Rochester and his first stint in Buffalo. By the end of 2021 you'd have figured he was a tweener and a disappointment.
Then suddenly out of nowhere gets 38 goals last year and this year is an absolute stud.
