I doubt he'll get 100 pts in a season, but he's really took off the last few months. His speed and puck handling are making most of his line's scoring chances, and proving him a legit 1st rd pick and top two LW. I expect a few 80 pt seasons coming up.
I just like that that kid is always moving his feet. He's always skating to open areas on the ice and setting up in good position. In the next couple of seasons he'll continue to get a little stronger on his skates, he's good on them right now, but sometimes when he's skating around the net with speed he can get bumped enough to keep the puck out of the net.
But there's so much in his game to think that he will be "Ennis the Menace" down the road.
He and Gerbe are always around the puck. In fact they impress me on how often to go in at get their own giveaway after contact with an opposing skater.
