Does anyone have any info on this guy? I read somewhere that he had "generational talent" but he lacked work ethic because he knew he was better than everyone else. Will he be a top 6 forward in Florida or will he fade into obscurity?

Thanks

Thanks for that, that first article from Hockey's Future was the one that I read before but I hadn't seen the other.

I saw him a few times here in Sudbury and he just doesn't have it. He might be able to put up points in a good situation but I see a lot of the same negatives as someone like Benoit Pouliot. He rarely gets involved unless the play comes to him. He's not a bad junior player, just not great either. At his talent level he should be producing more.
