Another year in junior. Only in rare cases (McDavid, etc) would an extra year in junior be a waste or detrimental to development. Usually it isn't possible to over-develop whereas tons of ruined careers from rushing players. Dube is undersized and not ready to play against men yet plus missed a lot of time this year, he needs to get a full season of domination under his belt next season. Best case scenario is Memorial Cup this year, WJC gold next January and a big year and he could get a look with the Flames in 2018-19.
