I can't speak for every fan but I know I can be a fan of Tij, the pick and the player, and not put giant expectations on him because of his Dad.
The pedigree means he will probably be a high motor player who will very likely be a good NHL'er and that would be fine with me if the Flames pick him. Anyone who automatically expects as good as his father isn't even being fair to themselves but I haven't talked with anyone like that yet.
