With Brusty knocking on the door, and Huska directly comparing him to Andersson, I’d say he’s the Ras replacement.
But Parekh is the most jaw-dropping offensive talent I’ve seen the Flames draft since Johnny. I literally stopped scouting him at one point ahead of the draft because I thought there was no way he was making it passed Chicago.
(And he shouldn’t have)
IMO, he’s his own thing.

He really isn't though, at least in my opinion. He's not NHL ready yet. My guess is with a full AHL year under his belt and an offseason he might have a chance to play a few next year.
Poirier/Soloyvyov are much closer to the NHL than he.
