Correct he plays for the same Travel Roller Team hes been playing on and off with before his ice hockey days. This kid can fly on wheels and has the hands. Just couldn't get the conditioning down right for the ECHL. Saw him play live a couple times. Nothing special on the ice.
 
I'm not putting the kid down or being ignorant towards inline hockey translation, but forgive me if I remain skeptical about this one until we hear some legitimacies about his game on the ice. I've seen some good inline players turn to total slugs on the ice, but there are exceptions. We'll find out down the road I suppose.

I'm a big inline player. I've represented Team Illinois in the State Wars tournament a few times. The only difference is ice is slower and tougher and inline is faster and needs more finesse.

TJ Oshie, Paul Stastny, and Henrik Lundqvist were all big inline stars at one point... (I know there's more).
