S77 SMJHL PT #7 - One Season at a Time Due: Sunday, July 21st @ 11:59 PM PST
#7

There was a time where 45 in 60 games would look like a pretty solid number, but the current era of the SHL and SMJHL is a different place. Falling under a point per game as an offensive-minded forward can't be viewed as anything other than a middling year at best. While Weston Windsor did pass his own personal expectations for himself which were fairly low, he still didn't rise to the point of being a largely effective or even well-known player at the junior level, and probably didn't do much to raise his draft stock either.

While his focus as a playmaker was clearly established, he simply did not develop the rounded offensive game needed for Newfoundland to leverage him as a real threat. Furthermore, he saw no time on the power-play and very little on the penalty kill, and his face-off percentage was lacking at just 46.8%. For a rookie center who aimed for immediate success, none of that makes for a particularly positive display -- especially when the team fell in the first round of the playoffs.

The path forward for Windsor is clear, however: he needs to work on his shot and his puck control, stop giving the puck up, and start winning some face-offs. After that, more responsible play in the defensive end could enhance his overall playability.
