Unfortunately Johnny has all but committed to returning to BC next year. I feel that due to the fact that he is a sophomore and the other 2 nominated for the Hobey Baker are seniors it will probably undeservingly go to one of them since Johnny will still have 2 more seasons to win one. If he does win though, that might slightly increase his chances of going pro. I agree with getting Ramage to sign his ELC and drafting Mackinnon or Drouin with our pick. It'd be nice to get a top flight Dman like Jones, but we have been starved for a true #1 Center for 20+ years and our current defensive prospects are stronger than our Centers.
