imo not in the sense that most people think breakout. I like him a lot, but I think his improvement will be a slow burn year on year. He’s just going to be that steadily good player who will have his moments, but mostly will facilitate his linemates having their moments.
He simply has to stop skating into the opposing player though. Looks great when he can get through, but my lord does he turn the puck over. Him entering the zone is like watching bobby ryan in his first few years, but without the handles and spin-o-rama’s.
