Reschny's my favourite pick out of the draft and I can't believe the Flames got him, but I'm getting more excited about Potter as I read into him.
He was a first rounder, but picking Potter feels a little bit like when the Flames drafted Gaudreau... he's going to take a while to develop, but his speed, competitiveness and brain quickness could turn him into the type of get you out of your seats, puck carrying star that the Flames haven't had for a while.
I'd still put him in the back half of the top 10 of prospects, but he's the type of player that could rise quickly. His numbers might really pop next year.
