You could easily be right, but reports say that his point total greatly improved in the second half of the year when he got more ice time. With his size he will play at least one more year in London. I assume he will get more time and get better.
My question is does he only have speed, or does he show signs that he can become a real NHL Center?
Well, I recall for a few years I was calling Dubois, Dubust and boy did Jarmo make me eat crow on that one. Fast forward to this draft, I can easily be calling Liam Foody, Liam Floppy, but I won't.
It seems management is gambling on what Foody can do in a more enhanced role, kinda like how Dubois exploded when he was inserted at center with Victoriaville. Apparently he was stud at the chl prospects game and if he gets the call to play in the wjc this might validate the pick at this spot, but for now the miss cue of this draft is Columbus not dropping to pick him later..
