The upside with this guy is that off an elite player in the NHL, but his size makes it less likely he'll get there.

I am not one to get too caught up in hype but after watching Johnny Hockey play at BC (albeit 2 games) the WJC, the WC, the Flames and the last two years at prospect camp this guy is the real deal. His talent is mesmerizing and I think his ceiling is super high.
An example is this year at camp, he was participating in a drill on the south side of the ice and an errant puck from the north side group ended up at the top of the circle as he skated by the puck he back handed it top corner into the net with a flick of a wrist. Unreal.
