RNH career ceiling is 100 points.
EDIT: Actually I would say higher. 105ish.
I do see the logic...lol
I officially annoint this thread as a gong show.
For whatever it is worth, Dobber lists RNH as a band-aid boy (Taylor Hall is on the list too): http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index...-band-aid-boys

Honestly predicting a young players ceiling is hard, and when he is a first overall pick it's even harder.
Realistically this kid was picked 1st overall for his amazing ability to feed the puck and find the lanes. If the OTHER first overall picks pan out, there's no reason he can't hit 100 pts. The Sedins took a few seasons to get to the super star status, and Edmonton is going through growing pains, and still developing into their bodies.
First overall picks, picked for their offensiveness should pretty well all have a ceiling of at least a ppg or more.
RNH ~100pts in a full season give or take. Way to young to try and predict the intangibles.

Anyone else notice that RNH played 28:12 in his first game in 6 months? It looks like he is fully healthy and still has the potential to be an Art Ross Trophy winner.

you can look at this two ways:
1. It was nice to see that RNH is healthy and talented enough to play that many minutes
2. I hope they aren't rushing him back into the lineup too soon and then forcing him to play too many minutes. Even if he wasn't returning from injury, that's a lot of minutes to put onto a kid who has only played 1.5 seasons of hockey.
I'm a big Oilers fan, so I hate to be so skeptical, but I haven't been happy with many of the decisions they have made in many years and I can't help but feel that if Hall had clicked at Center or if Gagner wasn't injured or if they had more depth, RNH would not even be in the lineup right now, let alone getting those minutes.
I hope for everyone's sake nothing happens to him and that he doesn't have a relapse.

I'm not sure what happened in this thread but...
I'd say RNH's ceiling is likely Jason Spezza-esque, 90-92 points at a peak.
