Who Am I?
Just for fun, this is reprinted from a Hockey's Future article of a number of years ago, and modified slightly by yours truly to implement a veil of secrecy:
_______ ______ (1st round, FLA top-ten pick): Originally touted as a speedy defensive forward in the mold of a "Federov" type player, the young ______ ______ was also very much a NHL ready forward whose attention to defense helped him make the jump right away (.)
______’s career as a Panther (is) one of promise, but he continuously tease(s) fans and management with his inability to finish on the majority of his goal-scoring chances. Countless breakaways (are) denied over and over, and he (has) never been able to get over the (sub-20) goal mark with Florida. His speed made him valuable though in a fore-checking role and ______ (spends) most of his time on the third line.
So who is it? I'll produce the link this evening...a great read!

Here ya go...I would have thought Rusty as well...
However, DVo be the man in this case. Funny how they parallel each other so wildly.
And read the article, written by Mark Fischel just prior to the 2002 Draft Lottery. Fascinating stuff.
