One of the least talked about stars and borderline superstars in the league, and especially by Canucks fans. I don't think I've ever seen anyone wear his jersey. Yet, when he hangs em up we will likely be talking about a slam dunk ring of honour guy, and more if he can help lead us somewhere.
His 2021/22 season is one of the best Canucks offensive seasons of all time. His current season could end up being better than Hank's if he continues this. And his down seasons were merely PPG which was far more than you would expect from his contract at the time.
I think the reasons we don't idolize him like other stars are understandable but might look a little silly in a few years. His demeanour, the fact Benning traded for him at a weird time, or just that it was Benning in general? Or was it the fact he's american and cocky and kind of one of those annoying "good at everything" jocks that sucked to deal with in high school?
I hope he continues this pace and continues to shock people who aren't paying attention when they wander over to the scoring leaders page.
