I’m not as high on him as some others are, so even without the combine results (which don’t surprise me the least bit), I would be trepidatious in taking him- at least with a first-rounder. When I watch him, I sometimes see a kid who is playing the game that HE wants to play, and I have difficulty at times seeing a player who will ever have the commitment or mindset to make the NHL. Just my opinion, and I could be wrong, of course. Some team will still take him in the top-25 anyway, maybe even top-20- I just hope it’s not our team. Top talent, though.
