The way Grigorenko sees the game and can control it is a rarity. I just see him in a completely different class than Frk.
Meh, I can only speak to my personal experience, which is only a few games. I'm not about to spout off about scouting reports and pretend I know what I'm talking about or try to super impose a scouting report on what I saw. I didn't see what the fuss was about and that's all I was saying. We will see as the season goes on. I will say that Frk, who I have seen play a ton hasn't necessarily had an opportunity to show what level he would have been as he has been out all season with a concussion. I have no doubt he would be right with mackinnon in team scoring or higher if he did play. Awesome set of tools and skill effortless scorer with an NHL calibre shot. Also brings and entertaining type of fiestyness to a game. His problem is his attitude and determination to do the little things like show up to camp in his best condition possible. Would have liked to have seen how he responded to the environment of a much better team this year and presumably how he brought more effort to being the best he can be.

Since he is going to be out til Xmas at least and playing catch up for the rest of the season conditioning wise, it's a shame for his draft year.
