Before Jackson Smith maybe?Mrtka will be an NHLer.
Mrtka will be a 1st-rounder.
and I'm even ready to say he might end up being drafted in the Top-12, maybe even before Jackson Smith.
But I don't see the offensive upside either and I don't think he is the elite skater many see (it doesn't mean he's not mobile for his size). I personally don't like his puck-retrieval game, I don't find him creative, he juggles too much with the puck for my taste, and I would like to see more physically. But that's me. I'm probably wrong, and that's my own opinion, it's fine if we don't all agree.
That being said, even if he lacks offensive upside imho, it does not mean he's never going to play on a first pair at some point in his career either. It also depends on where he ends up on draft day.
Here are all his points in the WHL so far this season :

(Braeden Cootes is so underrated)
Fully agree on Braeden Cootes.
