Evgeny Artyukhin. Absolute specimen of a human. Huge, could skate, physical, and every so often would miraculously remember how to play hockey for a couple seconds to get himself a goal or two. Unfortunately he was a bit of a meathead.
That's a fair assessment. He likely could have stuck around much longer if he wanted to, but I suspect he preferred to play overseas. I do wonder if perhaps he could he been more though. Certainly in the pre-lockout Lindros-arms-race era he'd have had teams salivating.He was kind of the ultimate 4th liner even as-is, though.
Is being durable a tool? If it isn’t for you, size shouldn’t be a tool either if it’s something you cannot train or get better.No brain
Such and odd thread inly guys that should be mentioned are injury prone guys. Otherwise if you had all the tools you’d be in the show
I don’t think so. He carved out a pretty great career.This is a Zack Kassian thread.
Lots of people mentioned in this thread have all the physical tools but not hockey IQ.

One of the fastest skaters I’ve ever seen at his size, kid was gifted with a rare blend of blazing speed, size, physicality. Went #1 in the WHL bantam draft, had an NHL shot at 15 years old, and at age 16 had the strength of a grown ass adult. And he was skilled.
Unfortunately he had nothing between his eyes and ears. He was entitled, lazy, showed poor work ethic, had a cement head, and was easily distracted off ice. This was a player who never once faced adversity in his life, essentially gifted an NHL spot despite not being ready, and thought he was entitled to everything that came with being an NHL player.
He destroyed all of Bobby Orr's OHL records.Brian Fogerty

In the 90's i played EA NHL (forgot which year) and i think the NYR had a guy named "Dube" who was super young but turned into a stud every playthrough. Like 120 point, MPV mofo.
I imagine whoever that was, he had all the 'goods' on paper
