I was thinking about it and this pick follows my own personal philosophy of "take the guy with one high-end trait around some solid traits over the guy who might be more well rounded". That one trait (in this case his explosive skating) can be the difference between stealing a spot in training camp from a swiss knife veteran and ending up as a Mattias Emilio Pettersson who is good at hockey but can't excite a team into finding a roster spot for him
