Yamamoto is a late 1st rounder, hardly a high pick.
I haven't seen much of the Oilers preseason but certainly Yamamoto has put up impressive goal numbers, but that just means you have a good hard talk with him, explain that there is still a lot of progressing to do and "we" (oilers brass) feel there another season of junior isn't anything to be upset about. He turns 19 in a couple days, let him know the door is wide open next year as a 20 year old.
