See him as a probable and very projectable #1 C in the NHL.
High end speed , vision , and character can never be underestimated in today's NHL.
Size would be a bonus, but does very little to dissuade me.
Faster Joe Pavelski?
4-7 it is.

Interestingly, two 5' 11" players are leading the playoffs in scoring: Pavelski and 178 lb. Kucherov.
