How do you project Byram?

You might be right on Hanifin comparison, but there is a chance that you aren't as well.
Byram was a 23-year-old last year and played 23 mins a night on the top unit. I think he can evolve into a top dman more so than Zary will evolve into anything more than maybe 2nd line winger. I see a very good chance of him being a 3rd liner.
Rasmus could get us a 1st, but I do like our depth at prospect. Need quality and odds are if the young player is already proven, he isn't available for Zary and Rasmus.
