Depends on who you talk to on this board
Bottom pair is a decently safe bet, but not a lock.
Upside beyond that? Dunno. Some people see middling pair potential.

About it. He did well when Eichel was holding that team down; when he was exposed a bit he probably took a step back.
He still looks like an NHL caliber D prospect.

The Return of a Legend
Probably ends up as a #5 or 4 if he makes it. Excellent skater, good defender with average offensive skills. Definitely a good prospect, still not a guarantee that he's gonna play. I think Andersson and Kylington are both better, he might have a slightly higher ceiling than Wotherspoon for example.

I think he has the upside to be a #3 or #4. He won't ever score 40 points but he skates very well and uses his size (6' 2") effectively. He has excellent positioning and most importantly, I think he has great vision as well. I think he could be a better version of Smid (when Smid was good).

He won't get a lot of fan-fare. But he's decently sized, mobile, and can shoot. I could see him being a good fit with an offensive guy like Anderssom or Kyller down the road.
Pretty happy that he had the talent to make the WJ team, but like Wotherspoon it may take him a while to make the team (if ever)

Negatory, and if I recall correctly there's no intent for him to sign this year. At least one more year in college.

We are not at risk of losing him if he doesn't sign this year if that is why you are asking.
Since he is playing in college he is not subject to the same rules in terms of re-entry into the draft as a guy like Bleackley or Duke.
I can only assume that is why you asked but if I assumed wrong my apologies.
