I don't recall Gleason and Belanger on the Hurricanes roster last year when they won the Cup.
So if Jack Johnson was on the Canes roster last season, they wouldn't have won the Cup?
I'm simply saying that they won the Stanley Cup without his services, when our GM was essentially begging for his services at the time he could have signed. JJ is the one that got the short end of that one. I don't care from what angle you're looking at. Justice would likely dictate that he spends a large portion of his career chasing an elusive cup ring when he could have had one for free had he not selected to go back to Michigan.
The only way staying in school is an honorable thing is if you plan to get your degree. Giving two years to a school while talking classes that do not challenge you in order to continue to play college hockey isn't a great sign of character. It's not a detriment either. It's nothing. People trying to exhibit that as proof of his immense character are stretching it.
