I didn't even think this kid, or Dobson, would be available (Wahlstrom either but given the exigencies in the D end because of terrible mismanagement / development, we needed the defense prospect more). RH - check; big shot - check; great passing - check; terrific vision on the breakouts - check. I don't like hearing about his slow boots but if he gets working on that first step quickness he might be alright. I trust Brock Otten from OHL Prospects and he has a nice writeup on the kid. Dare I say it, will he leapfrog some LD in the minors and get his 9 games this season? Maybe... just maybe. I don't know how much he has left to prove in junior but I doubt he'd be ready at the NHL level -- so clearly, that means he will at least get the audition, ugh.
