Believe me, the guy's got all the tools to be a good top 9 player in the NHL. He just needs a shot - something he was never ever going to get in Pittsburgh.

He couldn't play on the wing? Not to mention crosby and Malkin have missed a couple of games in the last couple of years...
I hope you are right and he proves me wrong, however if he stays in the NHL, it will be because he took over Blair jones' role not a top 6 forward spot.
Let's just hope your scouting is right and he is a late bloomer, but I am not going to get my hopes up that a 26 year old career minor leaguer. Hopefully he is the next Patrick sharp and not the next hnat domenichelli.
