You can have all the hockey IQ in the world, but if you don't have the drive, it's not going to happen for you. The Ducks are pretty stacked, though, so maybe he'll get another chance on a worse team.

Leblanc's biggest issue is being pretty good at a lot of things but not being anything special in any of them.

He could have been more than a tweener. Should've stayed in Hahvahd and hit the gym. Eating Big Macs on roadtrips to Baie-Comeau wasn't what he needed.

But it's exactly what the Habs and Team Canada brass and influential media lobbied for, claiming it was good for him.

If he had stayed in Harvard for four years he'd only have just completed his rookie AHL year.
