One quick look at his hockey history will tell you one glaringly obvious fact about Steven Lorentz: he’s no stranger to being overlooked. He was the 226th pick in the 12th round of the OHL draft as a 16-year-old. He was a 7th (and final) round draft pick by the Hurricanes in 2015.
He’s been overlooked his entire career. But one thing that he’s proven is – you can’t overlook his talent forever. He has persevered over doubt at every level of his pro career, and now, the 23-year old Lorentz, who hails from Waterloo, Ontario, could be destined for the greatest league in the world.
