I posted a few times last year that I felt he was being overrated. I felt that he was a man-sized kid dominating an inferior level of hockey, compared to most- although many pointed to him having glowing advanced stats. Still plenty of time for him to turn things around I guess, but I didn’t want the Flames to take him. I did have him in the early stages of the second round on my final list though, because of how high the scouts had him projected. The kid really does skate and stickhandle like a dream though.
I’m still shocked at how poor his numbers are this year, even despite the fact that he’s probably not getting much ice time on a stacked roster.
