That kid is unbelievable..Used to play summer hokcye against him. No joke he had 9 goals all 3 times we played. He could score at will. He would just take the puck behind his net and giv'er. Interesting little fact about him, he has a 96% average and was actually going to quit hockey so he could focus on becoming a neuro surgeon, guess he made the right choice!

I really hope he comes to the world juniors. I get to see the Canada exhibition game against Czech Republic and all of the European/russia (sweden, finland, czech, slovakia, russia..etc.)

I'm so excited...personally I hope A.O and Malken come too (good luck) ;)

He's not very respected in some parts in the league though he was supposed to go first overall but said he was going to play college then roy took him so he played! He could have atleast advised other teams that he would only play for Quebec of something like come on! <_<

Seen im twice in quebec.He is faster then crosby skate wise or equal.He like to shoot a lot more then crosby but with about the same %.IMO he is a crosby clone without the big hype that crosby had.But he is way above the other for a 16/17 year old.He his impressive.

[Kovy_Ribs_Fedo 3]

Yeah, The story behind 'Just going to play for Roy' is he got offered 1 million or so by him to play there and if he don'r make it pro, Roy is gonna pay him the college in the states, but Roy knew he is gonna make it. I find Crosby way better, Esposito is more like Modano, he is always skating, but Crosby got 3-4 times more hands than him.

I've heard stories about his shot. He used to play in the league I'm in now and some of my teammates played against him.

A.O. and Malkin? :lol: In your dreams. Russia expects both of them to make the National team. They're not going to want them to play with teens when they can play with men.

Has anyone been watching the Canada , Russia challenge? Its been verying exciting hockey. Russia takes on the OHL tonight in Kitchener.

I know, but I would just love to see them play, Ovechkin has became one of my favorite players

I have watched parts of each game and it's been okay hockey. The OHL game has been pretty good so far tonight.

[Chadd 916]

I think I'm going to go watch A-O on Sunday.

[Dougie8 0]

Thats so sweet. I would really wanna see him play

(he wears my favorite number too!!)

[mack 44]

No clue who this guy is, but could he get more of an ethnic name? I'm going to change my name to Seamus.

[Dougie8 0]

yeah.. It's actually not a bad hockey name?

Is he related to the Esposito's that were in the NHL?

[thejackal 46]

No, his family owns a chain of supermarkets around MTL.

[Gongshow11 1]

i used to play against him growing up. i was 17 and he was 13 at the time and skating circles around us. i remeber when i was 15 and he was 11 i owned him hahaha but then he got better while i stayed the same. i hop ehe makes it, he is a great kid, used to be good buddies in the summer when we played at hockey camp.

Yeah, that is how the draft works! You try to get drafted by the team you want, not some expansion team in the artic circle.

[NuggyBuggy 0]

and if he don'r make it pro, Roy is gonna pay him the college in the states,

If the guy is as good as they say AND has a 96% average, seems to me the last thing he would need to worry about is being able to afford college in the states. He'd get a free ride to any hockey school he wanted, and could probably get a full scholarship to just about any non-hockey school just on the basis of his impressive achievements and grades. Now the 1 million dollars is another story.
