As someone who lives in Kelowna and saw Kole play live 20+ times last year I will say this: when they describe him as gritty it's more of an after the whistles aspect of his game, I would not describe him as a physical player. When they say greasy, they mean that a lot of his points are generated by banging in pucks 5 ft from the net (not necessarily a bad thing). So projections of this crash an bang style winger seem a bit outlandish to me. That said, he's a technically sound skater and solid in his own zone. For all of you saying he's got first line potential, I would be shocked. I always imagined him as a 3rd line player with 10-15G, 20-30pts a year. Not a bad pick by any means, but I would have perferred Hague or Boquist, players with a higher ceiling.
