Only time will tell. I was a big defender of the pick at the time and was (and still am) more than happy to see this one through, but I still think he is further from the show than guys like Poirier, Shinkaruk and even Klimchuk.

It also doesn't really matter what most people think. One thing I have learned is that what "most people" think doesn't always align with what NHL GMs and scouts think.
