In the playoffs he played 24 games, had 24 goals and thirteen assists. He carried his team to win the QMJHL championship.
In comparison Claude Giroux had 112 points in 07 and 106 points in 08. I'm not saying Mantha will be better than Claude Giroux, but I would bet a lot of money that he will be one heck of a player for Detroit for a long time.
If I worked for Detroit I sure as hell wouldn't trade him for Bo Horvat.

I'm sure teams kick themselves EVERY DAY when they look back and realize they didn't draft Robbie Schremp.
