no offense - but this is one of the dumbest things i've ever heard.
just because he can't mature physically doesn't mean he can't mature as a player. players take time to adapt to different facets of the game. with time, as rocco becomes accustomed to the speed of the game in NCAA, i'm assuming his play will improve as well.
as with most, if not all, offensive stars, there's a "hockey sense" factor that can't be attributed to physical gifts. martin st.louis is a perfect example, and while i understand he's defintely the exception and not the norm of guys this size, from what i've been hearing, grimaldi has been pretty impressive in just a handful of games and has tons and tons of time in his collegiate career to improve himself as a player. to say he's "peaked" at 19 and this grimaldi after a handful of games of NCAA play is what he will be as a potential NHLer is one of the most asinine things i've ever read.
that being said, i appreciate all the input. hope to see rocco play myself soon
I agree.. Sounds like a jealous Minnesota fan
