Dev camp, rookie camp & young stars tournaments are a completely different animal compared to when you have Gio, Brodie and Hamilton staring you down in main camp and Johnny and Mony dazzling you in offense.
Pump the brakes a little.

It's true that these camps aren't a perfect indicator but sometimes you can just tell. At the Young Stars tourney Johnny dominated, Jooris clearly looked like an NHLer, Andersson was the best defensemen on the ice last year etc.
If you can't even look good against easy competition, you're unlikely to impress against the top guys.
And why should he "pump the brakes"? Guys are constantly making proclamations about other prospects. This poster can't have an opinion on this one guy? He clearly said it was just his opinion.
