Kid might just have slipped through the cracks thanks to covid.

He is a giant human being. Barb do your thing and get him flying

 

[zeke]

Apparently he can skate a bit.

3 yrs is a long time

To not have a chargrilled chicken sandwich, sure.

But to give up on a prospect who wasn't doing badly?

 

[Preston]

I would say that putting up just under PPG in the OHL as a 20 year old would be classified as doing "pretty badly." At best he's Goat.

Some reports he was just a casualty of the covid break and in a normal year he would have been signed.

19yr old. He was never an overager.

Either way he put up Goat numbers and doesn't skate as well.

I think you sign a 6'8" Goat to an AHL deal every time though.

 

[Preston]

Definitely. My point was just that it takes a special kind of person to be as pumped about it as zeke. Though we all know he's as special as it gets so I'm not upset about it.
