Landon Ferraro

See, I do.

I don't want to say this is his ceiling, because it's not, but if this is all he got to, I still think it's a pretty good thing of...

third line right wing and your second power play but can pop up into that first spot because he has the shot if he can find a way to have the you know 10 power play goals another 5 to 10 5 on 5 now he's a 20 goal guy out of that mix like that's a really useful player but you're right and

Again, I understand where Jonathan Leckermackie's skill level and where Landon Ferraro 10 years ago's skill level was.

Very different.

But the thing that's not different is our frames.

Right.

We're both slender guys.

I couldn't shoot like he could, but, man, I could skate.

That's the only thing I could ever brag about and not feel bad about because I know that one was true.

Past that, stories are getting better every year I'm out.

I had to play into traffic a lot more, and that's how I got hurt a lot, because I was this size, and I had to go put myself into those spots.

Now, he doesn't need to do that, but the reason I bring it up is because he doesn't skate as well.

He might not be putting himself into it, but he's inviting a lot more because he makes a really nice play.

He sees the play, and I give him credit.

He'll take the hit, and you've got to be able to do that, and he does it, but in saying that, he'll take the hit.

or he'll make the play and he can't get his feet out of it or be able to turn enough to protect himself.

And that's, I mean, that's where the shoulder went the last time he made a play.

He took a pretty reasonable hit, like pretty normal.

And it just, he couldn't, he couldn't get out of it or protect.
