Kurashev won't turn 19 years old until October, but there are already serious, serious concerns regarding his effort level. For all the natural skill that Kurashev brings to the table -- and there's a ton of it -- not enough gets done on a nightly basis. He hasn't showing a willingness to go to the difficult areas of the ice to make a play and his numbers this past season for QMJHL Quebec (19 goals, 60 points in 59 games) were underwhelming. Based on talent alone, Kurashev is far better than the 120th-best player in this draft, but he will have to display better commitment in all three zones to reach his high ceiling.
