I think he's just going to find it at some point. Like Gio before Russia and after. Is this the same player?

I've found over the years that sometimes overcoaching is worse for some personalities. If you are thoughtful and conscientious, you heed the coaches instructions but then those thousand snap decisions you need to make are delayed slightly by second guessing them. Thats where Huska needs to be on his A Game. One size does not fit all.

I actually leave my kids games when I see him thinking too much, he becomes terrible. Coach instructs all these details he is trying to process in game in real time. If he has nothing to lose he becomes great. Get embarrassed by coach, paralyzes some people.

We all want him to be something that maybe he isn't? Maybe he is Bouchard?

I think he has plenty of confidence, just have to hone it and I really have no skill to knnow how that is best accomplished.
