Anyone know much about this kid?

Final Rank is 14 but his numbers are off the charts. I wonder if this kid may be getting the same treatment that befell Subban in his draft year, that 5 10 is too small.

His numbers in 3 years in the OHL as a defenseman:

2012-2013 Sarnia - 62 gp 9 goals 49 assists, 58 pts 60 pims

2013-2014 Sarnia - 51 gp 15 goals 56 asssists 71 pts 90 pims

To me those are top 3 numbers, wonder if this kid may be a surprise move, haven't heard much about him though

thoughts?

I haven't watched him but from what I've heard and read on HF about him, he can't play defense at all.....like at all. I'd be fine if we switched him to forward though, his numbers show that he's a good playmaker. Hopefully he's still around in the 3rd

He reportedly has some really bad attitude problems, doesn't get along with his own teammates.

And even ignoring those reports, he was suspended 8 games by his own team earlier in the year for making a slur towards a teammate, and within a 5 game period of returning he was issued two separate abuse of official penalties, and was suspended for 2 games after the second infraction. Last game of the regular season, another abuse of official penalty. Seems like a hothead who doesn't learn lessons very easily.

Lots of skill but with his attitude, coupled with his size and defensive skills, I could see him falling out of the 1st or even 2nd round.
