How much was he propped up by those 2 things? He's got plenty of runway though, as he's attending college.
That said, I like him, and still think he'll play. Morin, however, is a home-run pick with top-pairing potential. Still can't believe we got him.

When I read below I get sense he didn't play with Nadeau brothers on first line. I'm sure he got PP time with them so it would be interesting to know what Suniev's (and Nadeau's) even strength points were.

Penticton Vees forward Aydar Suniev may not have gotten the same attention as his teammates the Nadeau brothers last year, but his first full season in the BCHL was impressive to say the least. The 18-year-old tied for the league lead with 45 goals and finished third in BCHL scoring with 90 points in 50 games, all while playing on his team’s second line.
