This is feeling like a perfect match, a match made in heaven. GET THAT BOY ON THE ICE!
I'm thinking of the combos like Huberdeau to Parekh, and Parekh to Coronato etc..

This. Exactly this. You even see it the attempts at zone entries. Neither Andersson or Weegar are a threat to carry the puck in. Teams cheat the bump back often but neither Weegar or Andersson take advantage and carry the puck in themselves in those cases. It often leads to giveaways or poor passes on the bump back so the two forwards behind have little speed with the puck.
Just give him a shot. He’s a confident kid with incredible skill. He may surprise some people and be a big contributor to the offence - especially on the powerplay.
