Rebooting myself
I think we will soon be having an announcement confirming he has signed with oilers and I also think that he will be a player some people will either love or hate.
For me I think he will be a good player who could develop into a second line player
Published Stats do not give the complete story on the guy

he plays mostly LW--but did play some RW this year as well
I have seen him play about a dozen times since the Oilers drafted him and to me he shows all the signs of having that extra gear that you need to be in the nhl
some videos of him
one thing I do like about him is the fact he shows emotion and when other players shutdown he bounces back to try to get back any ground lost in the battle
two players (for better or worse) I will compare him to are Petr Klima and Ales Hemsky--but from what I have seen he has more heart and better hockey sense then both
If the Oilers are smart--they will have him spend two years atleast in the AHL before they consider him for the the main line up--he has a lot of raw talent and if developed properly he could be a great steal at 88 in 2013
