Naw, he's already pretty much a point a game player in the NHL after two seasons. First of all, it's a short tournament that won't be weighted as much as you think in a negotiation and secondly he'd have to absolutely dominate for this tournament to cast him in a better light than he's already in.
He's already currently negotiating a contract based on being a star/potential superstar.
