Wow, look at that leg extension. I’ll bet he was a helluva skater!
But I’m probably just stating the obvious – Leafs wouldn’t have drafted a guy in the 1st round if he couldn’t skate.

My favourite goat moment was a couple years ago when the Leafs were playing the Sabres, a few big hits were exchanged and the game was getting chippy. Two Sabres went to go hit the big man as he was clearing the puck and they just kinda bounced off him like a bunch of toddlers running into a wall.
If they put Nick Robertson’s brain into Freddy the Goat’s body he’d be unstoppable

It’s too bad he never really used his size to it’s potential. Felt like he had all the makings and a solid power forward, but could never really get going
