I’ll watch this later, but I’ve got nothing but respect for Simmonds.
He went from depth player to top 2 net front presence in the sport through nothing but sheer force of will. He doesn’t have the frame for the job, but that didn’t stop him from getting it done, anyway.

Love this guy, everything you want in a hockey player. Wish the Wings would sent Kindl and a defensive prospect to Philly for him, we could use his grit and net front presence. That and he is exactly the kind of character guy you want in the locker room showing the younger guys how to succeed and exceed expectations.
