Gotta give it to the scouts, these are types of chances I love for a team to take with a 2nd round+ draft pick.
Not to get greedy, but can you win the Hobey Baker twice? With him probably going back next year, it would reason that he would be even better next year.

I'm a big believer of the USHL and feel it is a really good evaluating ground. If you look at it over the last ten or so years, there have been a lot of really really good players who were there prior to NCAA. That's why I was very disappointed Jankowski decided to forgo a year there with an excellent franchise and coach - would have really helped his development.
