Silayev is both a super intriguing player, but also one that scares me to draft that high.
It's difficult to think of any past players comparisons to try and project how he might look in the NHL. I've never seen a player his size skate so well. He isn't just a great skater for a player his size, he is a great skater in general. He seems to have the balance of a 6'0 player while being 6'7".
But very few prospects that tall ever seem to pan out, and it's hard to get past that in my mind. Fair or not.
