We hope, but you don't build legs like that in a full year, even. He can get maybe halfway there with a good summer of hard training, but it'll take a couple of years even with PEDs to reach that level of tree trunkage.Hopefully he shows up in the fall like this:

What are PEDs? Honest question, I have no idea, as my legs have been built like Roberto Carlos' legs ever since and I never *had* to pump iron for my legs. (My belly, however, has a sixpack of the non-muscular kind)

Aren't PEDs illegal in the NHL and aren't players tested for this? I think they are illegal in other sports.

There is more money in hiding them than there is in finding them. They are rife through all sports at the top level.

It's really ridiculously easy to see as a Finnish person. Finns don't tend to be very tall or very muscular, on average, even after a lot of training. Yet somehow, every time an A level Finnish prospect goes over to the NHL, within a year they start looking like hulking mountains compared to their compatriots with totally differing jawlines.
The only thing that does that reliably is growth hormones.

Basically in a nutshell? Leo is very good on both ends of the ice, but lacks finish due to line-mates.

And this is how you get chronic "hero puck" syndrome if you don't surround these guys with proper finishers.
Is Gauthier-Carlsson the pair we've been waiting for since Getz-Perry?
God willing. I've been fantasizing about it for a while now. It would definitely make Ducks games a lot more fun.
It helped that their first game together they showed really solid chemistry and Gauthier had mentioned that they instantly connected socially like they'd known each other for years.

Carlsson had Terry on his wing. But he's an 18-year old rookie in the NHL. It's a great sign he's a two-way player as an 18-year old. Give him a couple more seasons to develop physically and maybe he'll be able to carry players who might not be proper finisher. Mac is proof that a center can make non proper finishers look great last year with Vatrano and Strome. Mac still needs to continue developing physically.
