I certainly wouldn't want them to pass him up for for a guy like Robert Thomas that's a ppg player that scored only 16 goals last year as those types of junior stats typically translate to a bottom six NHL forward at best and the Flames have plenty of those types of guys in the organization.
Tippett has low hockey iq and profile looks eerily similar to Jake Virtanen. Pass on this guy, you either have hockey iq or you don't, it's not something that is learned. Don't mind swinging for fences but not on a guy like this.
