That said, I don't think it's unreasonable to have high expectations for a player drafted 4th overall. Plus, we've been spoiled with players like Monahan and Tkachuk who came right out of the top 10 in the draft and started putting up numbers out of the gate.

Well, last night he tried to do it all himself with about 3 canucks on him behind his own net. Or maybe that was because Hamonic and Bartkowski stood there and marvelled at his stick handling while failing to get open for him.
