Ladies and gentlemen, Jeff Gorton has done it again. On Tuesday, Gorton struck a deal that we all expected to happen when he acquired Adam Fox.
For those of you unfamiliar with Fox, he is a right shot defenseman, unicorns as I call them, who just finished up his junior year at Harvard. He had a marvelous season, compiling 48 points in 33 games, and was a Hobey Baker award finalist losing to Cale Makar – no arguing there. Many experts consider Fox to be the third best defensive prospect in all of hockey behind only Cale Makar and Quinn Hughes; all three guys that played in the NCAA.
