But back on topic, I don't think he can pull a Schultz. I thought it was because Justin was supposed to play in the OHL (?) but opted to play college. I thought that was more or less the loophole. Johnny committed to BC from the get go, did he not.

I freely admit to not knowing everything about the situation. Isn't Turner Elson the only Flames prospect capable of Schultzing?
the "loophole" is if a player players a season in the USHL or some other lower junior league after being drafted but before going the college route.

It is not so much a loophole as it is a rule that allows the player to become an unsigned UFA after 4 years after being drafted like every other player that goes to college after being drafted.
