Well that's ####ty, that's the risk you take with college players I guess, some are thankful for the team they are drafted to and some could care less. Haven't seen Hickey a lot so I won't comment on the type of player he will be but I wasn't all that impressed with him at the world juniors a few years ago. Guess we'll see what happens but that doesn't sound like he will be signing here anytime soon. Don't think it's good for his development to be playing another year in college but obviously he's in no rush to play in the pros. Some players are hungry for it others aren't.
