No, not first overall- OUR first pick. Watched him in the bronze medal game and several highlights on the internet. I am not an expert on the guy, but to me, he looks like Malkin or Jagr out there- a big man who is so talented at puck possession, gifted passer, and a knack for getting around the D and cutting to the net. He is very hard to get the puck away from him due to his reach and stick handling ability. This guy can go end to end effortlessly- he just makes it look so easy. Sometimes you can just watch a player and know that he is a special talent and could be dominant. Just wait until he gets older and bulks up a bit- he's gonna be a beast.
