Honestly, I didn't love what I saw. Has good wheels, but seems to have a bit of floppiness in the ankles. I saw him jump ahead on the rush too early, get back to the zone late a few times each and though a bit of cilantro made me start zoning out from time to time, I'm not sure I saw him win a face-off.
He also seemed to fling the puck away immediately in a random direction when under pressure of any kind.
It's one game and maybe he wasn't used to / ready for U20 and I'm really not a great judge, so take it with a grain of salt, but he looks like he's got a very long way before becoming an NHL center. Then again, it's a 4th, so no big deal if it doesn't work out.
