Not suggesting he is not a great prospect, but what exactly is fueling the optimism?
He's similar to Bo Horvat in that he does more than just score as he's a very well rounded player that competes hard and has leadership intangibles. I wouldn't be surprised if he turns into a better pro than Horvat actually as I expect Horvat to be burdened by overly high expectations in Vancouver.
