Mark my words...

This kid is going to score 600 goals and 1300 pts in his career.

No seriously, I think this kid has tremendous upside. He's only 17 years old and already he's 6'2" and 175 lbs., he can put the puck in the net, and he apparently is also a great passer.

He is the #1 center that the Flames have been looking for. Unfortunately they'll have to wait 3 or 4 years before he'll probably be ready to play for the Flames (not of course as the #1 center... but it'll happen... I hope).

I'd rather draft him than play it safe by going with one of the potential 2nd or 3rd line players that are still available. For too long the team has played it safe... thats why we've got a team of plumbers and one legitimate first line prospect in the system... and who drafted him by the way? Thats right Jay Feaster.

Two thumbs up Jay!
