Alright, I described some of the ways that Milan is on the ice in the earilier chapter...now here's some more to ponder.
One thing that Milan is known for is his finesse abilities onthe ice. These have not been exaggerated, because he truly is a fantastic player to watch. For someone that big to make those kinds of moves (such as turning on a dime) is a treat to watch, at any time.
However, one thing that young Mr. Kraft should not try and do is get mad while on the ice. I'm not saying that there aren't times that he doesn't have good reason to get upset when someone is trying to foul him up or otherwise hinder his performance, but it's just his reactions that can be, can we say, somewhat naughty.
Over the past couple of years, while watching him play, I've noticed that when Milan sees red, he tends to not be able to see where the referee is. That is, the ref is usually within a close enough distance that he can see what's happening, so generally, Milan gets caught for retaliation.
I like the way he plays, don't get me wrong. It's just that I know that, in order for Milan to be able to be even more effective than he already is on the ice, he's going to have to keep his temper in check (no pun intended) so that he's out on the ice helping his team mates rather than cooling off in the sin bin.
