Maybe this Russian kid turns out to be the next Tanev or Regehr, but the people who have watched him and do this for a living seem to think he more likely tops out as Adam Pardy or Matt Pelech. So I’m not going to get my hopes up on that.

Do you mean people like the Flames Scouting Staff?
Or the Flames Front Office?
Who are these people who "do this for a living" that you're talking about?
