Those stats with Owen Sound are fairly respectable. Mabye the kid can plat hockey when he's not asked to be goon.

Robin Big Snake has a good chance of making it to the NHL. His style of play is very similar to that of Jordin Tootoo. Although, Robin Big Snake is bigger and a better fighter! I like Robin Big Snake, but the ThunderBirds fans hate him
Robin Big Snake will never be a superstar, and he'll never be a first or second liner. He will be a third and fourth liner that can muck and grind, and he's great at using the agitator role. He is two for the price of one : He is BOTH an agitator and a fighter!
We need both in hockey.
He was a very effectively used player his first season down in Portland. Let's not get into talking about last season though...
Overall, I hope the kid makes it to the NHL. He's the type of guy that would elbow Mark Messier and cross check Wayne Gretzky on the same shift and then fight Darren Langdon!

How was he able to switch over to the OHL for his overage year, I don't understand how that really worked, anyone care to explain that?

I THINK, and I have no proof that this was the case, that he was cut as an overager in the OHL, and was picked up by Portland who had an overage spot available. Maybe?

I think you got that backwards. He played in the OHL as an overager.

In the CHL if a player is cut by their team (mostly happens to overagers) and not picked up by another team in their league they can be put on waivers and picked up by any other CHL team.

You very rarely see an OHL or Q guy coming this way but I have known of a few WHL guys going east.
