But he's not a great pick.
Agree 100% -- I was terrified that the Flames would take him, with Feaster intoning something about "size and character." Less than a point a game in the OHL? That's not going to be a top-6 player on a quality team, and that's not enough for someone who's been an elite goaltender 2 years in a row.
