i'm from his town, and whoever wasn't interested in hockey before is a diehard fan this spring. great story.
9 points and counting... and it's great to see his icetime increase greatly.
here's to hoping he becomes "the" next powerforward! cheers to your scouting staff.

I love this kid.. Seriously looks like Joe Thornton out there.. except he actually throws hits and takes shots. ;)
On a fairly related note, how in the hell did the scorers come up with Selanne scoring the 4th goal in Game 3? Penner deflected the long-range shot into Marchant's skate before it went into the top corner. One of the strangest boxscore irregularites I've ever seen.

Penner should have 10 points!
