He is/was a very highly thought of prospect and at age 22, he surely has time and room to develop into a better player. He could end up being another Kirby Dach but even if he doesn't enjoy quite as a dramatic improvement, he could turn into a VERY good and useful part of a good, young team!
On the surface, he played under 14 minutes per game. So you can reasonably assume he can do more. But look at offensive zone starts.. 60% or better… It doesn’t look good. 3rd or 4th line minutes, weaker opponents… His playoff performance was very lacking. I think this is Paul Byron 2.0. It’s ok, just don’t expect a point per game player.
I remember watching him with Colorado in the cup run and thinking, boy, would I love to have him as a Montreal Canadians. Welcome aboard Alex. Super exited to have you in Montreal.
