next month yes.

What do you think his ultimate upside could be if all things went right?

hard to say as I haven't gotten to see much of him. I wanted us to draft him as I think you need players like him in the later rounds, he works hard, goes to the net and seems to have some hands. I've had issues with the skating/speed but once he's in Laval we should start to have a clearer picture.

How is his forechecking and his board game?

 

[Rob Sense]

Just realized he is the same age as Joshua Roy which some are labelling as a career AHLer.

Interesting. I watched Harris at last fall’s rookie camp and thought he was one of the better skaters among the players attending the camp. If anything, in my opinion, it will be Harris’ skating ability that affords him the best chance of making the NHL.
