All those things are easily fixable, and or he can grow out of the "attitude" issue.

This was a good watch for me. Surprised by how much the guy hits although looking at his stat line, his PIM jumps out now (70 PIM in 27GP with I believe 2 suspensions). If he makes it to our late first-round pick, might be a good option just based on skill alone, regardless of his attitude problems.
