Give him top-6 time and he'll find his playmaking touch again. I hope anyways.

Yeah, his 5 goals and two assists in 5 games in Utah seems to say he still has an offensive touch. One thing I noticed is he looks a lot bigger than he did when drafted. The Flames site shows him at 175 Lb.s whereas other sites are showing him at 200 Lb.s and maybe he got a little fat with him missing a year without being able to train properly. He looked a little lethargic with what I saw of him in training camp.
