I've seen him in about a dozen games dating back to his tb days (watched him play the Panthers a couple times)
He is better than he was then, but not by a huge amount.
Plus I like goalies a lot so I tend to focus on them more to see if there is anything there, especially with new kids on the block.
I didn't think that he would be more than a fringe starter then unless he took a few steps forward in his game, and in the 5 years since I last saw him outside of highlights, he's made maybe 1 or 2 steps forward, not as much as you would hope for considering the developmental time thus far.
Unless he takes a huge step forward soon, I don't see him being any more than what I said.
