Worth Retweeting
Robby Fabbri with the best game of a draft eligible player that I've seen this year. Hat trick. Forced about 5 turnovers on the forecheck.

Quotable
- Kyle Woodlief from USA Today.com, “We just love his up-tempo game, lightning quickness, smarts, and aggressive play down low among the big redwoods. Nothing deters him.”
- GM Mike Kelly: “Robby is the most dynamic 17-year-old forward to come through the Storm organization since Jeff O’Neill. Absolutely driven to be an elite NHL player.”
From the THW War Room
- Eldon MacDonald, THW: A few words on Robby Fabbri:
- Mr. Forecheck – You just have to watch this guy for his forecheck skills alone; he is that little dog that always gets the bone.
- Motor – His motor is like one those under-sized motor bikes that is grinding away at full throttle all the time, no matter what the gear or the situation.
- Skills – Acceleration – excellent; top gear – outstanding; agility – elite as he is so elusive; hands – soft around the net and an excellent passer; shot – quick with an excellent release. Top the physical skills with outstanding vision, desire and you have yourselves an outstanding hockey player.
- Draft placement – Late twenties or early thirties on most lists; size is the only thing holding him back from going much higher.
