I love that Johnny's mom is thinking she is looking out for him, but she needs to look at he big picture. Johnny is a communications major, which means he doesn't have a lifetime of big pay checks staring him in he face. He has an opportunity to make more money in his first contract than he will in 10. The family needs to realize that the 10 year average for comm majors is $72k, if you find a good job. The brass ring only comes around so often. He should take a shot at it while it is there. Opportunity to make the NHL at his position will never be better than right now. Flames depth on LW gives him an immediate path to the show. Silly to pass that up.
