Chances of Snuggy Getting Significant Starting Time?

So completely different time and players with zero relevance or relation to each other? That we can agree on.

No one is anointing him the team's or league's next superstar. No one has him pegged for the Hall of Fame before he ever plays one game in the NHL. Folks are simply excited to see the one of the team's skilled players, a 1st round draft pick, join the club. Temper all you want, as I believe that's what just about every other fan is doing, including me. But it's also OK to be excited to see him officially on the team.

Yes, five years ago. Or last year. Different players, different team.
