Sure, except the fact that there's absolutely nothing to suggest he'll be anything but a star player in the NHL, if not a superstar if he reaches his potential.
I know it's the cool thing to do to hope for failure because Oilers, but anyone's who's watched him in junior knows it's not a matter of if his success will transfer to the NHL but how good he's going to be.
He's a special hockey player, and you'd have to be a huge, huge Flames homer to not see that and be excited to see how he does. I hate the Oilers, but I'm pretty excited to see him play.
