I think the large juniors who score better in the NHL than
perhaps projected based on junior stats probably matches up pretty well compared to small juniors who light it up in junior but can't make it in the NHL (often due to size, like a Brad Moran). And even if this kid is too slow to be a top 6 guy in the NHL, he must have some hands and can be an effective role player.
