Prospect Info: C/RW Matthew Savoie, 9th Overall, 2022 NHL Draft - Traded to Moose Jaw 1/4/24

Any insight into him of recent? Haven't watched him since WJC where he didn't impress like he needed to. Don't have the greatest idea on his ceiling but I've heard some saying triggerman who could score 20-30 at his peak on the wing? He's not anywhere near the dynamic prospect he was being seen as pre 2022 draft.

I think hes skilled enough that the upside should always be there.

Even in his draft year there was some discussion about him being flashy with speed and skill but not always using it to put real pressure on the defense. Probably gets harder the bigger and faster the opponents get. Size and injury history obviously play a role too, but now I haven't watched him in a while. How are his linemates?
