MAJOR: Adam Fantilli Welcomed to the NHL With Crushing Hit By TJ Oshie
Adam Fantilli was taken third overall in the 2023 draft. He has now truly been christened into the NHL - with a bone-crushing hit.
Oshie Rocks Fantilli and Sends Him Flying
At 6'3» and nearly 200 pounds, Fantilli isn't easy to get off his feet. TJ Oshie managed to send him flying with a massive hit, however.
Oshie, a veteran on a struggling Capitals team is clearly trying to stay relevant. He has a few more good years in him, but he's not quite what he used to be.
Fantilli, projected by many to go second overall behind Connor Bedard, is looking like he'll be a first-line centre in the league for a long time.
He'll be able to achieve that goal if he keeps his head up!
