I agree he looked good. But that's a very small sample size to trust in.
Also the rental RD market looks iffy this coming season
Larsson (who won't waive for edmonton)
Ekblad (who, in order to get to the cap hit edmonton needs is going to cost a fortune as well as being unlikely to be sold by a contender)

So your best bet is what? Pionk? 34 year old Savard? (also, I think MTL might just be able to turn this RHD market into a 1st with savard).
Do you really want to have to pay a 1st round pick to get David Savard, who I'm not sure is much better than Cody Ceci himself.
