I wouldn't bet on it. He's already two years since his draft and still hasn't played a college game. That's a pretty big red flag.
He's been in the USHL for the last two seasons and hasn't really done anything to stand out.
He also hasn't attended the last two Flames development camps, which is also not a good sign for the team's interest in him.

You can compare Mattson to Spencer Foo, who also played two years after his draft eligibility before starting college. In his final year in the AJHL, Foo was his team's leading player. He scored almost twice as many goals as anyone else on his team.
Last season, Mattson finished 10th on his team in points. Of the 9 players ahead of him, only one has been drafted.
