Other comparables the year after their draft year:

N.Backstrom: 40 points in 46 games in Swedish First Division.
Patrick Berglund: 48 points in 35 games in Swedish Second Divison
Mikael Backlund: 13 points in 37 games in Swedish Second Divison
M. Zibanejad: 13 points in 26 games in Swedish First Division

Not really lighting it up.
Craig Button and TSN ranked him high this year so all these guys are experts on him...don't go bringing facts into this nobody likes that
