Exactly. He is far from an Art Ross favorite but I would not be shocked. 48 points in 45 games as a teenager pretty much speaks for itself. Don't let Oilers hate blind you from the fact he is a hell of a hockey player and quite likely operating at a different level than Monahan, who is no doubt an exceptional player.
His performance in 2 exhibition games means nothing.
