Player recap--Drydn Dow
Oh my.
Dow has a ton of promise. He played less as Yuen leapfrogged over everyone to earn a roster spot, but took advantage of every opportunity that he was given. He's not the biggest guy (at all) but doesn't need to be. Dow fits perfectly into the Americans' plan of small and speedy. He doesn't get rattled and certainly doesn't play like a rookie. Alright, sure, there's rookie mistakes here and there, but overall this kid is going to bring a lot to this team in the future. I'm quite excited.
Dow played 30 games (2 more in the playoffs) and amassed 2G 3A, 5pts. He had a +6 rating and 16 penalty minutes. Seemed like he played more than 30, maybe he just played all those at the Toyota Center. Seriously, this kid is loaded with potential and I'm guessing he'll be playing a lot of minutes next season.
As an added feature of some of these player profiles, I'll be adding in a "looks like..." bit. As in Drydn Dow looks like a young Jordan Knight of New Kids on the Block fame:

HAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! I love the look-alike thing!
LOL.
OMG. That poor kid will never live that comparison down! LOL!
What is really funny is that he is probably much too young to know who the eff the NKOTB are.
(I still say he looks like Taylor Lautner.)
@Kim - But Drydn has big eyes. I think Justin actually looks like Taylor Lautner.
And yea, NKOTB to those boys is like the Jackson 5 to us.
