The comparison / hopeful-expectation is outright ridiculous.
Sure it's probably a 10% chance he becomes a 60 pt NHLer but that's the risk with every prospect.

When the trade of Erat for Forsberg happened it looked unlikely that Forsberg would become as good as he has.

The point is that at the time of the trades their performance in their draft and draft + 1 seasons were very similar, that is the only comparisons people are making.
