Yep. It would be outstanding. I can actually see Aggy and Klimchuk making the NHL for sure. Agostino looked really good to me at the prospects camp and I think he may be able to become a good 3rd line winger. One of our more underrated prospects. I'm glad he's signed up.
To stray a bit off topic though..
The best part about this deal for me; as a big Gaudreau fan is the fact that Aggy and Gaudreau have known eachother since they were in primary school in New Jersey, they were rivals all through out their minor hockey careers and are now good friends. iirc they are both in the top 5 all time scorers in NJ high school hockey.
This just goes to solidify my opinion (like most) that Johnny will almost certainly sign here if not after this NCAA season, then after the next.. I know if I was Johnny it would be awesome to play in the AHL/NHL with Arnold and Agostino + a bunch of other guys I'm sure he knows well from the NCAA, USA juniors or flames prospect camps.
Anyway..Welcome to Calgary Aggy!
