1) Next year I think he will kind of maintain his current play. Wont regress but wont wont really look like he is taking steps forward either. Still easily a top 3 defender on the Yotes.
2) The next 5 years is where he will really grow and mature as an NHL player, I see him averaging around 40-50 points a game and shining as a 2-way defender.
3) Well, its his peak and I wont say he is going to look like Lindstrom but I could certainly see him being recognized as a step down version. I hope he even surpasses Lindy in his ability on and off the ice, character, and leadership but I wont be disappointed if he doesnt. Assuming he is still a Coyote then its going to be a very exciting time to watch him play, a time where I could see multiple Norris Trophy finalist appearances and maybe a few where he actually wins it.
Overall this kids going to be a stud, if not sooner I think in 5 years he will consistently be a top 15 blue-liner in the league.
