Kassian starting to show what he is capable of - Happy the guy has turned his life around and is taking advantage of his opportunity. Feel good story - too bad it wasn't with us!

@Rubik third line- and playing very well and playing first PK! so much for he can't play defense! His goal last night was a shorty, that he created by interfering with a pass/shot from the point and a nice feed from his partner for a breakaway.

Pavelski simply lost control over the puck. Kassian just happened to be there, it was pure luck. The breakaway itself was pretty though. The point is, he's 26 years old. We were told that he will be the next Bertuzzi. When Bertuzzi was around 26, he scored 25-36 goals, and 55-85 points. This year Kassian played a full season (79 games), scored 7 goals, 24 pts. He's playing third line minutes. I'm happy he's playing better, but this isn't his ceiling. It's just a different role. He failed to live up to everybody's expectations. He stayed in the NHL (for now) unlike Hodgson. Is this what you call a turn around? I wish him the best, I really do but this is not a success story.
