That’s how JFresh described the former first-round pick when he signed with the Penguins this summer.
Hmmmm.
Sounds an awful lot like a couple of players from our not-too-distant past, doesn’t it?
Dominik Simon skated fast, created scoring chances and drove offense (at least according to Corsi), but couldn’t finish.
Jansen Harkins skated fast and…well…hustled. No need to hammer home his dearth of scoring.
Back to the present. Through three preseason games, spent pretty much stapled to Sidney Crosby’s hip, Anthony Beauvillier unleashed an impressive 11 shots on goal while compiling a stunning 64.
