5 Foot 8 Dallas Stars prospect absolutely crushed much larger opponent

In the 3rd period of Game 7 between the Kamloops Blazers and the Seattle Thunderbirds, there was a devastating hit.

Don't let looks deceive you, Logan Stankoven may be undersized in terms of a draft pick, but that is a bias that leads to bad drafts, and a lack of knowledge in a player's skillset such as Stankoven.

Stankoven may be 5'8" but here he absolutely lays Hanzel out, Stankoven all the while 20 pounds lighter shows even little guys like Gaudreau can throw the body, finish checks, and have a powerful two-way game.

In his WHL career, since being drafted by the Dallas Stars, Stankoven registered 104 points in 59 games, for the Kamloops Blazers this year.

If anything this is another great pick up by Jim Nill who since Jake Oettinger and Jason Robertson, seems to be drafting just fine.
