David Bolland might be a comparable somewhat.
2nd round pick with a career high of 47 points, 37 next best season.
39 points per 82 games regular season, 53 during playoffs, where he was a beast.
Absolutely instrumental in the Hawks first 2 SC wins, shutting down the Sedins and Thornton among others.
Injuries derailed his career, as he simply couldn't play like he did in the playoffs long term.
