There are lots of players that score heavily in college and juniors that aren't necessarily top prospects. In fact, Johnny wasn't a top prospect when he was drafted.
That's not to say that Fox isn't a good prospect, but experts haven't historically ranked him as elite.
But all this back-and-forth is really a waste of time.
Calgary has become a much better team due to this trade. And their contract structure on the players they received is much better going forward.
Whether Fox becomes a star or not for Carolina or any other team is largely irrelevant at this stage.
