Well he had a nice game last time he played in the NHL even if it was against the Oilers. He's got skill so there's always that chance he puts up a few points. That said it seems the Canucks media and fans have somewhat unreasonable expectations on him to become an instant difference maker. It would be like the Flames dressing Poirier and us and our media making similar comments.
As has been said his performance will more or less depend on how well the Flames play. If they play like they did in the past few games I don't expect him to be a factor but if they play like they did game 2 he's going to get ample opportunity to put up some points.
