Perfectly acceptable for a non-foundational 6th overall pick.

Oh no doubt for sure. My point was that you can't extrapolate his draft year numbers into what his future NHL numbers will be, since if you could, we'd be expecting multiple PPG seasons, and sooner rather than later. Who knows, maybe he was the one actually driving that line, and Calgary ends up with the best player in the draft for 5 of the last 6 years. I wonder how many 1st OA picks that took.
