He was 87th in scoring in that league, outside the top 100 in points per game. How early would you draft the 87th leading scorer from the BCHL? And the BCHL is a much better league than Minnesota High School.

I agree with this 100%. West is another one of those “wouldn’t be drafted if he was 6’0” tall” types. He’s much more athletic than Dean Letourneau was last season, but I see some parrallels. However, I believe it was Snuffy that had an interesting post about him, extolling his virtues nicely, with some compelling arguments in his favour.
Now watch the Flames take him with their late first….
