The Flames scouts liked him before and I seriously doubt that has changed. He's young and he's raw and he's on a bad team in a high scoring league. I don't care too much about his numbers, the most important thing IMO is that he gets to play a ton of games this season.

He's very good positionally, it's just his glove and blocker need a bit of work. Playing time is the biggest thing for him moving forward.
