From Goon To Top Pick?

OSLO - By no means has Oslo Storm defenseman Jack Kowalski set the VHLM on fire. Through 37 games, he has 31 points, 101 hits and 63 shots blocked. However, widespread belief that he would become a mindless goon that existed only to fight and make cheap shots has proven to be untrue, for Kowalski has shown to be developing into a reliable and defensively stout player with a legitimate future in the Victory Hockey League. With goalie and teammate Niklaus Mikaelson the clear cut #1 prospect in the Season 41 VHL Entry Draft, many were shocked to discover that Kowalski comes in at #2 on the VHL Entry Draft Rankings.

 

"It's definitely something few people saw coming," said Doomsday Agency representative John Gordon. "Mikaelson is the top Season 41 prospect, but depending on how the lottery plays out, a team that doesn't need a goalie could end up with the top pick. If a trade can't be worked out, Kowalski is the runaway choice for the first overall pick and I can guarantee that absolutely nobody could have predicted that happening before Jack made it to the VHLM."

 

With Kowalski's progress and documented stance against sandbagging to remain in the VHLM, it is safe to say that when his name is called on draft day, he will be heading to the VHL to play the duration of his career eligibility in the pros. Whether he will do so as the first or second overall pick is yet to be seen.

Can players make it into the HOF just off PIMs? Please make it so.

 

I put points into fighting expecting to get into a bunch of fights, but halfway through the season and none. STHS has a different plan for Kowalski.

Sounds like it just makes you better at fighting doesn't improve your chances at being in a fight. #uselessstat
