I don't think it will happen though. I've seen this kid play for Erie Otters, he is a dominated player.

And he was dominated by Hunter Smith's team. The kid can be shut down and you can really get under his skin. I think that is his biggest weakness. He is only going to get frustrated more playing in the NHL as most guys will be keying in on him from the start. No sheltered minutes no matter where he plays in the line-up. Maybe he will be the next Rob Schremp.
