Too be fair, the leading scrorer on that team had a whooping 16 pts. So if he was getting a lot of bottom six minutes, 5 points would be about what his production should be around based on what most 3rd/4th liners contribute to their team's overall goal/point output.
Basically, it's hard to write off the kid straight away based on a stat line. Like you said, let's wait and see what he can do.
Obviously, I don't want to see you guys landing ALL your draft picks but I don't mind seeing you steal a Michigan kid from UofM. As far as production...he was the 4th overall pick and ranked by most I saw pretty high. I'm sure he didn't spend a year in Plymouth learning how to suck. You should have a pretty good one on your hands.
