Gleason won't be forced to play much defense for Edina this year since his team is so dominant. A year in the USHL would force him to learn to play against bigger bodies and also put some muscle on.
I think with Ben Blood already coming in all they would need to do is add an experienced junior player and let Gleason and Fienhage come in a year later.
If Kane gets around 90 pts and a Toews around 60, I don't see Toews getting the Calder over Kane. I wish him the best though and could easily see Toews winning it.
