Maybe he can become another Scott Hannan but even he had 43 points one year in Kelowna.

He's the same size as Kronwall. To me that is his best comparable. A less skilled Kronwall. Mike Peca was one of the most feared hitters of the previous generation and he was only 5'11. Scott Stevens was only 6'1 IIRC. Hitting isn't necessarily about height but more about mass and timing.
He's not at all like Sarich IMO. He is naturally more physical than Sarich was. He's a lot faster. And I think more skilled as well.
