Gonna be exciting watching him at the WJC against the best in his age group.

I don't think anyone overestimates his ceiling. But fans might be overestimating his chance of achieving it.
No question that he is in demand by other GMs due to his ceiling and recent hype. But in terms of top 50 NHL prospect boards etc I think there are too many other prospects with similar ceilings that are closer to the NHL with a better chance of reaching it.
But like I said, I have a good feeling about him and am enjoying the ride regardless of where he may or may not fall on an arbitrary chart.
