The father/son thing has worked out just fine for the Brett Hulls of the world, and Mike Foligno's older son, Nick, is already a bonafide NHLer, so there's a couple of connections for Marcus.

Don't lose faith before they turn 18, man!

G: Johnas Enroth
D: Chris Butler
D: Tyler Myers
C: Tyler Ennis
W: Nathan Gerbe
W: Tim Kennedy

Not to mention their first three draft picks last month:

-Zack Kassian is a special, and very large, talent.
-Brayden McNabb is wonderful value for a third round pick.
-Marcus Foligno, son of former Sabre great Mike.
