I'll always have a soft spot for Etem after he listed Bad Religion as his favorite band on his draft profile. Haha. Hard to believe looking back that both he and former teammate Hunter Shinkaruk have both been such disappointments so far. Reminds me of those seemingly stocked Oil Kings rosters of that same era that produced a bunch of busts. Who knew that Griffin Reinhart, Curtis Lazar, Hank Samuelson, David Musil, Brett Pollock, Mitch Moroz, and Michael St Croix would all bust so hard? I mean, those are all first and second round picks. All on an elite CHL team. All fizzled out at the next level. Hell, Samuelsson, Musil, Pollock, Moroz and St Croix aren't even useful AHL players. None seem to have a future in playing hockey at any level. From top prospects and Memorial cups to trying to find a real job inside of 5 years for these guys. Wow.
Mark Pysyk is basically your one guy from that powerhouse group that's on track. Haha.
