"He's got all the tools that you need to be a good goalie," O'Dette added."He's athletic, he's technically sound, I think maybe his biggest asset is his mental strength. His efforts were recognized with the Del Wilson Memorial Trophy as the WHL Goaltender of the Year and WHL Playoffs MVP honours. "Obviously his performance there gave him some confidence, going to give anyone confidence when you're playing on the world stage and having success," O'Dette said."We've seen that version of Thomas time and time again and it was nice to see him show that to the world, get the respect and the recognition that he deserves.
