I see his name thrown around alot in trade rumors but wondering what everyone thinks about his upside? Personally i like him alot. Hi is an elite skater seems to have great offensive instincts and actually has shown some bite to his game at times which probably surprised me more than anything else.

I like Ras too and he obviously has other elements to his game size, right handed shot which fills a roster weakness. All that being said, i have been more impressed with Kylington the last several games. It seems like as he has gained confidence his game has really improved and he is making smart plays and showing good awareness. Is he still prone to some mistakes?? Absolutely. But with the game getting faster and his skating i see him as a possible TJ Brodie replacement in a few years. I am not saying this season or next by any stretch but i see that sort of potential.

Am i only one??
