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.
Again, you can't know that. Would I have said the same thing about Bedard at 14? Yup, because he could have turned out the same as Shane Wright who was just as highly hyped at the same age. Some players are that good, but you can't possibly know if Dupont will be yet.
