Still though - have to be worried about a guy that was passed over in not one but two drafts.

This is effectively his draft+2 season, a season where you'd expect an NHL player to dominate.

And to be fair to Leason he did dominate - finishing 3rd in the WHL in U-20 scoring:

Glass: 1.82 PPG (2017 - 1st Round - 6th Overall)
Almeida: 1.73 PPG (2018 - 5th Round)
Leason: 1.62 PPG (Undrafted)

He also had a good World Junior and didn't look out of place with other top players his age...But the concern here has to be that this is a guy that teams didn't think enough of to take with any of there picks over the last two years and now a team is going to spend a first on him.
