That is odd commentary.

The USHL is a difficult league to score in and while it may technically be inferior to the ohl the gap is very narrow as it is very much comparable to Canadian Major Junior. I am also not sure where you'really drawing the idea that he's "riding shotgun" on a very good line. He had 66 points in 60 games for Youngstown which by USHL standards could point to a future top line forward (look back at the same age scoring of NHL stars including Gaudreau). His point totals lead his team by 16 and we're tied for second best in his league as a draft-eligible.
