The kid has tons of talent but just hasn't been taught to play a complete game. They should have put him in the AHL for at least a season to learn how to play at the next level before jumping him up to the NHL. Does he have lots of value? don't know, maybe in a decent organization like Detroit. Not sure that we could fix his game and not interested in giving up the assets to try.
Edit: The fact that Edm has literally no defensive system isn't helping.
