Ty Rattie off to a hot start though.
I do genuinely wonder what his story would be this year if he hadn't got hurt early in the season last year. He never seemed to be able to find his place or stride after that.

It sure didn't help him that we hired the one coach who'd already given up on him once. Preconceptions and first impressions are awfully difficult things to shake. Rattie struggled to get ice time the rest of the season, and never really got a top line push under Hitchcock. Very limited powerplay time too. His 53 seconds a game was 14th on the team, about the same usage as Yamamoto, Zykov and Caggiula (although it's twice as much as what Puljujarvi got, so there's that!)
