What’s that old adage about “you can’t teach size?” Let me introduce you to Jordan Greenway.
Drafted by the Minnesota Wild in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft at 50th overall, Greenway hails from Canton, NY — about 30 miles away from the Canadian border. He played his minor hockey in the New York area, and was said to mirror his game after power forward Ryan Getzlaf.
As a young kid, he was bigger, faster, and more aggressive — always motivated to put the puck in the net. His swagger, and tenacity earned him entry to the Minnesota area, and to play high school hockey at Shattuck St Mary’s.
