I feel he may end up being better than Poirier.
But can't disagree, both are showing at best as bottom 6'ers. But is there anything wrong with that?

Is it a failurel on a GM's part to draft a kid in the first round that at best Becomes a bottom 6, 5/7, or solid backup that is reliable every time he steps in?
He played 57 games in his draft+1 and 60 games in his draft +2. Not even close to missing a full season
