Process never stops:

Benjamin St-Juste on continuing to grow as a player: You can never think you’ve “got it.” Just because you’re on a 53-man roster, in the starting lineup or in your sixth year, there’s always more to learn. That’s how, BSJ said, you eventually get to “legendary status” pic.twitter.com/dt4ctOP4F0
