You’d be surprised when realizing this is a description of Toronto born Leafs prospect Connor Brown, a player often considered a long shot to play meaningful hockey by most pundits as he was most often describe as “small” and “undersized” during his draft year.
All that being said, Connor Brown answered all of his critics following his draft year by having a strong sophomore season putting up 28 goals and 69 points in 63 games. Again, critics were still labeling him as “too small” and knowing that many young players in the OHL put up good numbers yet so few make it out of junior and further their careers at the pro level.
