You are comparing this kid to Bobby Orr. BOBBY ORR, the greatest of all time... Gimme a break....

I thought I made it clear that I was not comparing Schultz to Orr just saying that not since Orr has a rookie defenseman had such an intial impact.

Not since Bobby Orr arrived on the scene in 1966 has a rookie defenceman arrived with such early domination. Now I am not saying Schultz is another coming of Bobby Orr. He dominated as an 18 year old kid and changed the game for ever. Schultz is already 22 and Orr had been playing in the NHL for 5 years when he was 22 years old

Just wanted to give the forum experts someone to jump on. I am just saying that no rookie d has hit the scene with such early impact. I understand it will take most hockey followers to appreciate just how good this kid is. Most have not yet even had a chance to watch Schultz play. Trust me when you see this guy play you will appreciate what I am saying this kid is clearly a cut above the norm and then some.
