The Kinder, Gentler Version
It seems like turning pro makes sense in his particular situation. He’s 20 years old and can’t go back to the WJC, he’s playing for a pretty old college team that’s likely to lose much of its core and take a step back, and he’s already played a huge role on a championship team, winning the title and scoring a point per game. Plus he’s already very big and strong and mature. I just don’t see what another year of amateur hockey can do for him. I’m not sure why he’d even consider it.
