If the oilers hadn't tanked or sucked those years and went got a middle draft pick, he would have been used differently. From a who know was known to score goals and be that potential first line player to a defensive forward who now plays on third line... Edmonton does not know how to utilize it's players.

A 10th overall pick that is only in the league because he plays on the worst team in the league seems like a bust.
He has zero offensive instincts and no ability to finish. If lucky he turns out into a serviceable 3rd line guy but he looks bound for the SEL if he keeps up his current play and the Oilers ever get some talent/he is traded to a real team.
