oh yeah its happening...
Everyone hated him for that. Until it turned out he was right.Isn't Hyman on the first line a Babcock invention? He deserves a ring if you win it all.
you can make a flimsy case that Draisaitl slightly exceeded his most optimistic projections, but that happens quite often, and is no way comparable to the Brad Marchand story.
I saw him play peewee in AAA. Way too small and slow and was in way over his head. Played A mostly after that. Had a summer where he grew 6 inches and that was that. Became a new player and eventually grew into his body. He's a rare case because he didn't play much competitive hockey growing up. Single A hockey pretty much entirely after peewee. That's one of a kind shit.gioradano is a interesting case as well even though he really only how one super duper elite year
from a canadian kid going to the KHL at 24ish to having a career year at 35
And if AJ is back for the 2nd round......what happens then?
he replaces the weakest performing guy on the 4th
