That's funny, because that's who I think of when I see Pominville.

NO, NO, NO, AND NO! In no way shape or form does Jason Pominville resemble Derek Plante. Maybe you guys are looking at the hair or something but I'll break down the differences.

 

Derek Plante: Slight Build

 

Jason Pominville: Medium, wiry build

 

DP: Softest player of his generation

 

JP: Actually has thrown several body checks

 

DP: Passive, evasive if need be

 

JP: fiesty, will take bad penalty in retaliation

 

DP: Still looks 15, well into his 30's

 

JP: White man fro, chicks dig it, just ask his swedish supermodel girlfriend

 

 

 

As far as hands, skating and shooting ability. They are both good but I feel like we are just seeing the tip of iceberg with JP. DP topped out at 25 goals, 55 points. Not terrible, but soft and turnover prone. JP is great in the corners and causes turnovers. I think Pommer has the ability to be a 30-35 goal scorer.
