Okposo's Progress:
Gordon, after one-on-one video w/ Kyle Okposo: "He’s a 20-year-old rookie," Gordon said. "The fact he’s able to play up here and be comfortable says a lot about his ability. Whatever deficiencies he has is just from not playing pro and not having the ability to know there’s less time than what he’s accustomed to in [college]. But I think he’s acclimated himself. He’s a pretty smart kid. I don’t find him to be a guy who, when he’s on the ice, I worry about. That says a lot about him."
