"Off the charts"? Not really, assuming that those charts include ERIK FREAKIN' KARLSSON!!!1
No but seriously talking about the guy like he's a typical 60th overall pick is nonsensical. He has all the talent in the world and picking him in the top 20 would have been perfectly defensible. He's also been playing regular minutes in a pro hockey league for two years. The idea that he might get into a game early season is still unlikely (given that he does need to get stronger), but by no means absurd.
People SHOULD be excited. Boom or bust? Sure. But boom is a realistic possibility.
