I know it's only one game but the way he's been playing since pre-season is making me question if there's something more to him.
This guy has a great vision, he really stands out to make great passes across the ice. His weakness is his lack of strength. Every time I see him try to be physical he seems to bounce out of a player after a hit, and the opponent is just shrugging him off.

He's really good at everything. He's got the skill, the vision, the skating and has a great motor too. It's just too bad he's so tiny.

Dude was trying to crack a perennial cup contenders line up his hole career .. got limited looks in the nhl. There 100% could be more to him. This could be a perfect storm

Abb doesn't have the skating a guy his size and skillset needs. He needs way more mobility and quickness. He's still a beautiful man and a good bottom six player on middle of the pack team.

He did look good, but it’s 1 game. I personally don’t really care who plays as long as they win. We just need to keep in mind that he’s 27 and there’s a reason he hasn’t really cracked the nhl yet.
They’re going to have to rotate guys in and out because Kapanen and Pezz will need to play. At least all the guys should be hungry.
