Watching guys attempt to hit him, only to get destroyed themselves, will never get old.

Agreed. It seems that he's not even going out of his way to seek these hits out. Sometimes he does, but most of the time it's just guys attempting to line him up, and they end up being destroyed. Sick to think he's only 18 and can barely grow a peachfuzz stache. What's he going to be like in his prime?

I know right? Imagine when this kid is fully developed. I hope his hitting can translate to the NHL. A fast, scoring, heavy hitting young player is exactly what Benning said he wanted, and that appears to be what he's got.

They changed an assist to Virtanen from last nights game. So that's two multi-point games in a row for Virtanen.

It sounds like Jake is getting more ice time as the coach is going with 4 lines rather then overplaying his overagers like he normally does. As the Hitmen are on a long road trip with lots of backs to back games, due to the Curling tournament at the Saddledome.
