The guy was sadly overhyped his draft year, Stuzle was easily the best player available.
I think Byfield could play in the NHL but a bottom 6 role, he doesn't have the impact factor you would expect from such a high draft pick. Sadly he's also had injury problems now, I'm not sure I'd trade Hanifin 1 for 1 for Byfield tbh.

Patrick always had questionable upside, including pre-draft.
Byfield has been carefully managed by the Kings. He isn't getting put in positions to opportunity to produce offensively at this stage. I suspect he will this year.
He'll be a top line centre.
