Not saying he will be Gaudreau because that is a long shot but the kid obviously has skill as he was seen to be a first round pick prior to the draft.

Give thenlid 3 years and let's see if he will be a Calder trophy nominee or put up 60+ points.
I would even wager if it wasn't for Gaudreau and the success he is having Yamamoto wouldn't have been a 1st round pick.
Johnny had top 3 talent in his draft but what felt like impossible size to succeed which is why he fell to the 4th round. He has since proven that he is just fine even though he is small. That has helped pave the way for many other young small players.
