If you remember back to the World Jr. team he played on, which all the "experts" predicted he wouldn't make, he started off being on one of the lower lines and his ability in all area's of the game moved him up. He ended up killing penalties and playing some on the PP. The kid has always had the total hockey package and seems to have developed well.
