BTW, Sam Morton was a top 10 finalist last season. The Flames have had a lot of finalists and winners through the years.

Suniev is only 19, right there for the conference goal scoring lead, and one of the leading point getters in H-EAST.
It's a lot different than comparing him to a 24 year old Morton last year. Suniev is on an elite trajectory and outscoring some very high profile NHL draftees at a very young age for the NCAA.
