But focusing on the player himself...he looks like he has a good shot to make the NHL...I'll certainly be pulling for him.

Lol, good looking player but bad pick because you stubbornly said so at the time? If the player is good, the pick is good. It honestly seems like the perfect time to have taken a project player. He is on exactly the timeline that he was projected to be on, and looks seriously good doing it.
What do you think is a 'real' chance? 5%? 50%? Anything to keep the bogus narrative of 'bad pick' alive, right?
