Wow, I'm not sure what some people think they're seeing. I don't follow our pipeline too closely, so maybe my expectations are a bit lower, but Erne looks good to me. I've been impressed both times he's been called up. He's not overmatched at this level. The only question mark I see is his finishing ability, as I haven't really seen him shoot it enough to guage his potential as a scoring threat. Other than that, I'd say he has at least a tad more natural ability than Killorn, particularly as it concerns skating and stick handling. Hockey IQ seems good, too, although I could see a minor gripe about effort/focus levels over a full sixty minutes. He plays like he's already earned his spot at times.
Ultimately, for me, it boils down to this: Would he be an upgrade on at least one of our four lines? I mean, quite frankly, you'd have to be blind to say no.
