He will be drafted in 3 years, it's not like it's some crazy decades away prediction and there are plenty of people hyping the kid because of his on-ice performance, off-ice demeanor, statistics, accolades, testimonials etc. If people said Bedard was legit at 14 would you have the same stance? Plenty of people, myself included, were touting Bedard as the next major player after McD when he was 13/14 and low and behold here we are. Some players are that good. Dupont is.

He called you extremely Bias not bias
ed. I assume he's talking about that basketball player Len Bias. He was that NBA prodigy that was supposed to be better than Jordan but died of a heart-attack due to cocaine use.

According to former NBA player Walt Williams, Len Bias could have been the greatest of all time. Williams told the Basketball Network last year that Bias was ahead of Michael Jordan in terms of skills. Bias had the better jumpshot and could defend all five positions.
Obviously he can fizzle out. Not breaking new ground to suggest that. Just interesting a Calgary kid (could possibly argue he developed more in Germany than here) and a Flames connection and interesting to watch his development, that's all.
