There probably is less than 10 freshman next year capable of putting up those numbers and Zellers is one of them. 

Because like @nascar99 pointed out, the USHL confectionery store has already been sold out of premium candies & no more will be available until they get their next shipment in the fall. I'm not saying to emulate MI & put all your hopes on some 1-year mercenaries, but it's nice to have that 20g/20a (at least) guy who can be a difference-maker in close games. I like the way Jackson is constructing the roster, but it seems to be lacking that 1 dynamo to take it to the next level. Plus pinning your first line on an unproven Zellers with no high scorers to complement him may not be the wisest of decisions.   

I do think they will keep a spot open into the summer for any late decommits if they are not able to get any impact players in the next month. Worst case scenario is they bring in one of their recruits early as a depth guy

Well then flip them. If my kid is committed to Michigan and they then add a few CHL studs…you better hope my ears are perked as far as other opportunities. At this point, the gentleman’s agreement from years past is out the door. 

Exactly , lots of players out there.
