Agreed, the only progression I saw was in the Playoffs when he began to actually use his size to protect the puck and cycle effectively (albeit with some growing pains in terms of over-using his size). If this progression continues, then he could be a key player. If not, then he is expendable.
As of right now I would actually take Bouma, Ferland, Byron and Jooris (not to mention guys like Granlund, Arnold, Agostino) over him as they are younger with more (IMO) potential as effective bottom 6 wingers.
