Button is saying we should expect him to make a strong push to make the team next season.

He's still got two years left on his KHL deal, so it's probably unlikely:
Undrafted in 2014 and 2015; Korshkov goes through the draft for the third time. He really opened eyes with his World Junior Championship performance, where he put up eight points in seven games. His efforts helped the Russians to a silver medal. He already has experience playing against men, as he has spent most of the last two seasons with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl in the KHL. He could fall in the draft due to the fact that he still has two years on his KHL contract.

Korshkov has excellent size, but will need to add some muscle to his frame. He is an excellent play maker, as he uses excellent stick handling skill to slow the play down and wait for teammates to get open. He is strong on his skates, and has the agility to go with his stick-handling and beat defenders one-on-one. Korshkov uses his body to win battles on the boards, and to protect the puck in the cycle game. This should get even better as he grows into his body and gets stronger. He has high end hockey IQ and almost always seems to make the smart play with the puck on his stick.

The leafs dont make this pick unless they are really high on him after hours of scouting. Also they know or believe other teams are high on him and he wont be around later.

I trust Hunter and the scouting team.
