I see this as Calgary's Nazem Kadri situation.
I get the comparison but outside of it merely being convenient, I can't wrap my head around it. As a non-Leafs fan, I can honestly say that at the very least, Kadri was prone to show tremendous glimpses from time to time early in his career.

Aside from Sven's initial emergency call up, I can't say he's ever impressed me with more than the occasional slick pass every 15-20 games. Kid doesn't have the jam to make it in the bottom 6 in this league and until he starts producing offensively he doesn't have much to offer the Flames. If being passed by fresh prospects every year doesn't motivate him at this point he's probably a lost cause.
