Remember that time the Edmonton Oilers traded for Griffin Reinhart when they could have had Mathew Barzal?
Although both players are from the Lower Mainland, only one is flourishing in the NHL right now.
Barzal has settled in with the Islanders in a second line role, but he’s producing top-line numbers.
With 23 points in 23 games, Barzal’s production leads all rookies in scoring. Yes, he’s even ahead of the almighty Brock Boeser.
