He’s going to have bad games. He might have a rough year (or two!) but you let him grow and nurture the elite parts of his game while he works on the shaky areas.
How nice is it going to be to have a player that thinks the game fast and can start plays with outlet passes out of the zone. Every sign is that he brings that, so such ability will be worth the price of admission alone for me.

It feels like since we lost Johnny and Noah that we get our heads caved in a lot against opposition forecheck because of panic/desperation giveaway clearance attempts.
