    I really like what I've seen from him so far. I think he could be the real deal.

    2nd pairing PP2 is his upside as he plays the same position as Quinn Hughes. With that said, Rathbone could be a very good 2nd pairing dman. The Canucks also don't have any other NHL dmen on their team right now!!!

    A lot depends on your league setup and if you have to roster him and wait or if you have a minors system to be patient. Also depends on the size of your league and the size of your rosters. Personally, I see solid NHL upside in him and he's someone I am holding him in deeper leagues. In shallower leagues, probably not, but again, if you have a minors system, that changes things.

    Thanks for the replies, been a 7 day gap between his 3rd game and 4th game - so having to wait to see if he add to his stats.
    I am in a 28 team full keeper league, unlimited prospects (under 75 games played for skaters) - lots of time to wait.

    I just grabbed him in the 6th round of my 24 man salary cap league (keep 11). Happy with what I've been reading both here and on twitter. His point totals are very good. Looks like a solid top 4 guy.
    Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.
