I don't think he cracks my top 20 personally.

He was a big part of helping his team beat out Mcdavid for the Memorial Cup. Looking at some replays I think he does have the potential to become a 2nd line RW with a scoring touch. That said, it's going to take a couple years in the AHL before he's NHL ready in any capacity.
