The contract is not going anywhere, he is going to get the pretty much the same contract if he signs today compared to 2 years from now.
It's a choice of wanting to wait 1 or 2 years where he has a better chance to jump into the NHL right away and make millions of dollars while enjoying being big man on campus with a relatively relaxed college schedule.
OR he could sign right now, go to Abbotsford and play for $80k/year.
