Plus Dubuque seems to have produced some solid players lately so I'm sure he'll be fine going there.

I think one of his decision criteria will be how he does in this prospect camp.
I don't think he should have a lot of competition for top six minutes at Providence. The leading scorer only had 25 points and so what if he spends some time on the third or fourth line in his rookie year, he'll still be developing his game and building strength.
