He’s just such a insane player. I think he’s so awesome and great at hockey. I’m glad to see people actually noticing this guy for what he’s worth

[@alecgonzales706]

bro is ur pfp what i think it is

[@Woelan]

Robertson is a beast! One of my favorite players in the league. I watch a lot of Dallas hockey now solely because of him. What an awesome hockey player

[@LeadBellyLuffy]

This kid single-handedly changed the game yesterday from what looked like a certain loss and then sent them to OT. I’m a believer

[@the1andonly759]

Finally, someone is talking about this kid. Great vid

[@AMFK07]

Everyone always says a "market like Dallas" but the Winter Classic is proof that there's a huge market for hockey down here and that there's a very passionate fan base

[@oyeahjustcomenting]

I’m not sure that’s how it works… for example the NJ Devils are def a small market, but what happens to them is so freaking close to NY Rangers, Islanders, and Flyers which gives a ton of focus on when good things happen. I don’t think Dallas has anything that “amplifies” it in a way. Try to get brought by Jerry Jones😂

[@hockeypsychology]

I agree. I guess living in Ontario, everything here is about the Toronto Maple Leafs. Can get annoying when you realize how many other great storylines there is in the league

[@user-xg6sx5ev9u]

Dude wouldn’t be recognized if he was walking downtown dallas or something so i don’t know about that, stars have a fanbase but i would not call texas a big hockey culture, not yet at least

[@AMFK07]

@@user-xg6sx5ev9u you must not live in the area because there are multiple "Star's Centers" in the DFW metro plex and the Star's have one of the highest and most consistent ticket sales on all of the NHL, not to mention the Winter Classic had the second highest attendance in winter classic history. I also personally believe that while Robertson may not have the presence as Dak on the streets, he would still have quite a few people recognize him.

[@Vitalitay]

@@AMFK07 you cant compare a winter classic to a regular season game. No shit their gonna sell tickets when its the WINTER CLASSIC. People will litteraly travel from different countries to see those games...

[@zacwilcla321]

As a flames fan, watching this guy in the playoff series’, he’s unreal, was always nervous when he was on the ice

[@CJMattias]

Robertson is being talked more than Hintz tho. Hintz is the most underrated.

[@thenextguest3230]

Robo is better then Hintz but Hintz was probably one of the most underrated player last year. This year its currently robo.

[@TheSalsaDiary]

Uh no plz dont

[@TanukiGG]

He's one of my favorite current players.

[@irritant623]

Ty for this, the kid deserves to be in the spotlight

[@mattblom3990]

It's that Robertson just appears to "be there" but then by the end of the night he has 2 goals, 2 assists. His style isn't boring but it just isn't super flashy, he just appears to fill the scoresheet most nights.

[@thenextguest3230]

Well, those goals and assists do help the game when its like 4-3 or 2-1 or smth

[@Gergentine]

Exactly this, knew he was good, just the stars are an incredibly boring team to watch other than him hintz and Heiskanen. Not saying their bad, just boring. Like the islanders

[@StonedSpagooter]

[@pfrbrothers]

I know right he's been just as good as McDavid almost this year! He deserves more attention!

[@dillansnow3760]

I've definitely noticed him on my fantasy team!

[@tumyp245]

I think everyone who follows Dallas knows this guy is crazy good

[@RandomThoughtsW]

He's extra motivated by what his owner said during the summer and now he's in 'ill show you' mode.

[@Rex73777]

I’m in Islanders fan and when I heard the owner say that I wanted to try and call Lou myself and tell him to sign the kid over here on Long Island. In my opinion based on his numbers and his performance he was being modest in what he was asking for.

[@mattlau]

I remember looking at the top goal scorers one season and saw a guy with 41 goals and I was like, WHO? Then I looked at his goals and realized this guy is capable of 50 and even 60 goals in his career. He goes into the dirty areas and has a heavy shot. His size and skating make him tough to defend. Dallas got a franchise player who has so much potential to break 100 points every year.

[@blahblahblah2243]

People in Dallas been talking about him for like 3 years now. Welcome to the club.

[@ComfortQube]

Good point. I know all about him and how good he is doing, but I don't think I've even wrapped my head around it. Also nobody in my hockey pools seems interested in him even though he is a better pick. It happens though, some people don't even realize Draisaitl exists because of McDavid. Probably also to due with the team he is on. They're super exciting to watch, but I don't think many casual fans realize this and Dallas isn't a team I hear brought up very often. Good video!

[@EarlofSedgewick]

Dude scored 15G 15A in 16 GP between Nov 1 and Dec 1. That is absurd. I do think there's an element of luck to the stat line being that high, but the kid is getting 50 for sure this season. Possibly the best ever single draft for a team. Elite goalie, defenseman and forward all in one swoop.

[@apexkech]

Glad the Stars got some young talent.

[@Dhemize]

Robertson is the real deal no doubt

[@davkatjenn]

For Robertson, I hope that he wins every trophy that there is, as for myself, I already know how good he is and quite honestly, I would not trade him straight across for anybody, not that there are not many great, great players out there. Cale Makar would be the one player that I would have to consider but then who would find to replace Jason Robertson? He has been blessed by being paired up with Roope Hintz and Joe Pavelski last year and this, but when he is playing alongside other players their play is elevated. I swear that it feels as though Jamie Benn is playing like he is twenty-something again. Jason Robertson just looks like he is having the time of his life out there and that feeling is absorbed by all the other Stars players around him. And he is from Southern California, a hotbed for hockey (true, but just kidding about the hotbed part). I believe that he has a great chance to be as good as Luc Robitaille.

[@XxdeekillaxX]

I think he can win a scoring title at one point.

[@rushilb6]

[@davidjohnstone4975]

The fact that Robertson was not the number one priority for Dallas and had to hold out as long as he did while also being trash-talked by the team owner shows how he is undervalues most prevalently on his own team. If your franchise player isn't being valued at home, it isn't likely he will get the recognition he deserves league wide. He deserves better.

[@teajay3671]

“He deserves better” translates to “come on over here”

[@FlamesTheCatx3]

The contract hold out was not for money, it was term. Robertson is incredibly valued across the entire stars front office and on ice aswell. Hes right at home with the stars and its incredibly obvious you don't watch this team.

He's the type of player that benefits: A) from being so big and strong, but not fighting tough B) playing against smaller D men that are more puck moving like Hughes C) isn't playing against Pronger and Stevens He's Todd Bertuzzi powerforward-esque in his prime mixed with the likes of Jagr's hands. He and Tage Thompson are going to be so much better in a couple of years.
