It means that Feaster and/or his scouts do not see obvious flaws in his game even after scouting him.

And even if he was genuinely excited, he needs to temper expectations...he's become king of the unfulfilled hyperbole:

guaranteeing the flames would make the playoffs
Cervenka being the best player outside the NHL.
Ramo and Berra being the top two goalies not in the NHL
Jankowski turning out to the best player in the draft in the next five years
How he'd never steer a rebuild

sometimes saying less is a good thing.
This can also be a sign of Feaster being insecure and pressed. I don't think he's "excited", nobody will be in his situation. More like he feels pressed to sell something, anything to the owners and media. Things are dire and he either feels the desperate need or is ordered from above to hype little positives up as much, as possible.
