| Jeff Skinner @ Back Yard Bistro - P. Koutroumpis |
When the Carolina Hurricanes' Jeff Skinner now walks into a room, we are beginning to see a boy emerging into a man. Currently the NHL's leading rookie scorer and a Calder Trophy contender, Skinner emits a smile and radiance that is heartwarming and exciting for all of his fans. On Thursday night, Skinner was the special guest on a local sports radio talk show 99.9 The Fan ESPN with host Mike Maniscalco at the Backyard Bistro located across from the RBC Center in Raleigh, NC. Apparently the crowd and following that Skinner attracted broke all records of past Hurricanes players who have been on the talk show previously. Not surprising when you watch Skinner on the ice and then listen and watch how interacts with his fans.
The Kid is good and is the story of NHL All-Star Weekend so far and by the end of it, will be the Man.
