From Botchford's twitter: Canucks saw plenty of Schroeder this year. His teammate is a also a Canuck draft pick, mystery man Patrick White,

Canucks spent a lot of time working on this draft and then just had schroeder fall in their lap

E.J. McGuire, the NHL's top amateur scout, said Schroeder is "destined for stardom in the NHL."

Scout Jack Barzee on Schroeder: "A dynamic player, a leader. Has developed into a complete off. and def. threat every time on the ice,"

Worth noting: Matt Duchene played with/against 2 20-year-olds a night. Schroeder played with and against entire teams of 20-plus year olds

If all goes right, NHL comparables to Schroeder: St. Louis, Kane and Gionta

EJ McGuire thinks he can make the jump: "He's as capable of contributing as was Gagne last year, and Kane -- He's right in that ballpark."
