His two-way IQ has always been underrated because he won most of his plaudits as a prospect as a stick handling and offensive magician and he’s always been a skinny, finesse type of guy.
Usage and scoring-wise, I think he’s got the potential for to be a slightly bigger version of Jesper Bratt. PP1, PK2, not a heavy physical player but supreme hockey IQ and elite speed and stick work. Even if he were shooting 13% and not 27%, he’d have like 4-5 goals and 11-12 points in 14 games with a meaty special teams role….for a guy who just turned 22 and can make plays that very few have the skill to make. That’s a pretty special player.
