I believe that Prestin's last year in juniors included 283 penalty minutes
in 53 games.  So clearly pugnacity, if not outright goon behavior, has been
part of his game in the past.  Sometimes it takes such players some time to
realize that while behaving like a thug might be considered a positive in
juniors, it is the exact opposite in college hockey.  The old instincts take
some time to be retrained.

Sadly, however, some never learn.

Let's hope for improvement in Ryan's case.
