Hello Stars fans, quick question for you. What do you think the outlook is like for Jason Dickinson making the jump to the NHL this season?

Each summer I review the progress, rank, and provide prognostication on each NHL team's OHL prospects. Today is Dallas' turn.
I like reading these. Any insight on the guys we let go?
I think Dallas probably made the right choice on all four.
Haydon's offensive game never really developed, despite what I would have expected. His defensive game is solid and he's mobile though. He was the one I thought "might" still get a contract. He'll return to the OHL as an overager and if he has a very good year, I could still see him earning an NHL contract.
Peters was in a similar situation to Haydon. It was a recovery year after tearing his ACL and quite frankly, he didn't look like the same defender this year. Offensively, he regressed. And defensively, his mobility looked to be hampered a bit. Like Haydon, if he comes back to the OHL, completely rejuvenated and motivated, he too could earn an NHL contract.
Moran just never developed any consistency to his game. Great size, but still prone to weak goals (which cause him to let in more weak goals) and poor positioning.
And Sanvido, I don't think he ever developed an identity. Hulking guy, but never really learned to use his size to dominate physically. His mobility, while it has improved, still isn't at an NHL level IMO. And offensively, his first pass never really improved all that much either and he can still struggle with the forecheck.
Can you tell me if this goalie, still in the plans for Dallas, under contract ?
He was draft in 2012 i think and still playing in the junior league.
Guryanov has been invited to the Russia U20 NT WJC camp.
I noticed that Markus Ruusu was picked for WJC camp.
Dickinson is also doing good. 12 games with 10 points ( 4 goals, 6 assists )
