I agree with your conclusion that he'll eventually be a Flame, but I don't think he's given any indication that he'll skip his final year of college. The closest that I've heard to that was a comment in the spring that he hopes to play for the Flames "at the end of next season," but "next season" could have meant '13-'14 or '14-'15. The Flames fan in me hopes he meant it the way you took it, but I doubt that he even knows for sure at this point. If he can win the Hobey Baker and the national championship this season in his hometown, I think he'll go pro, but he doesn't seem like the type to leave unfinished business.
