I think he sticks as well. Biggest reason is we do not have a player like him in our lineup and we need a player like him. I don't think it hurts him to go back to junior but I also don't think it helps him immensely. If he hits a major wall let him go to the WJHC or send him down before we burn a year of unrestricted free agency.
Everything about this kid shows he is ready to handle the big leagues. Sure 4pts in 8 games is not the same impact that Monahan had but I still see more value in keeping him over sending him down
