lots of players sign with the team that drafted them after completing 4 years of college ... the majority of the players do, it's just a small percentage of guys who choose a different direction. This year, there's probably one guy who will guy that route (Zach Hyman), plus Mike Reilly (who didn't go to college for 4 years, but can use the Schultz loophole because he played in the BCHL for a year after being drafted). Over the past few years, there's also not a lot of cases - Kevin Hayes of course, but other than that, I can't think of anybody off the top of my head. Corban Knight would have done it, but obviously he was traded and signed before he could become UFA.
