Ryuuji has a younger distant cousin in the International Simulation Football League who’s name is Eugene Smoothie. If for whatever reason a lockout were to happen in the SHL and Minamino’s bank account was frozen due to an IRS audit of suspicious income sources, he would probably be best served as an offensive player given his perchance for wanting to put points up rather than preventing other teams from scoring. As a bit of a do-it-all that has his strengths in his balance and raw power, combined with the lack of general footspeed, Minamino would probably do well as a balanced tight end who wants to help with both the run and passing game, able to get open and pound the ball for short yardage in key situations. Plus being able to run over some players would be satisfying even though that’s not something he has historically been interested in doing in the SMJHL. If he could be a red zone threat type receiver that’d be the ideal but trying to find his jumping ability isn’t something easily measured by FHM or by hockey in general.
