I think he’s a top 5 candidate, but not a 1OA candidate. Also a chance he ends up like 15 or so if he can’t figure out a way to take a step forward.

Certainly some shine has worn off him due to his production stagnating from his D-2 to his D-1. His skating remains elite, and he's transitioning to C, which could help solidify his stock, assuming he doesn't take steps backwards. Personally, I'm still a believer. As of now I expect him to go 2nd overall, and I don't think it's outlandish to think he could pass Hagens, although he's undoubtedly behind him at the moment.
Why was he moved to Center so late in his development? This is Canada, after all, where MOST Top prospects are either Center from birth or moved to Center once they show some real promise.

He’s a natural center, but his junior team has had good centers who are older, so it’s taken some time for him to move to the position in junior.

3 assists (2 primary, one of which was on game winning goal) in game 2 of memcup.
0+4 in 2 games

He probably won't reach combined stats of 100 points this season for Saginaw, but currently at 90.

I feel like 25 will end up alot like 24 with a clear #1 guy, Hagens next year, then a lot of different takes on the order of the next 9 guys to fill out the top 10.

25 also looks like a strong year for Sweden in the first round as of now.

But so much can change in a year.
