The whole package is nice, Sillingers shot is obviously incredible and on display. But starting ~ 2:30 there are two plays in a row that showcase some pretty great speed and agility in skating. I think hes improved on these concerns.

Edit: sillinger is #34
Hockey IQ trumps speed. Speed is also something that can be worked on and improved in the next couple of years. A lot of players have overcome that hurdle. Obviously comparing him to a future HOF player isn't fair, but I recall there being some concerns about Iginla's skating and it really improved.
