Also, due to the agreement with the nhl, it is very advantageous to develop first round draft picks as they get their “kick back” financially.

How do CHL players get "kick backs" from the NHL teams who draft them, or are you talking about their education packages? I thought CHL players only received a monthly stipend of around $250. Or perhaps you're referring to USHL players.

I was talking about the clubs.

Schloss did a deep dive into Williams and WHL U17 scoring stats.

What type of prospect is Williams? What should fans expect? That can be hard to measure with CHL players because there are no past examples of how they produce in the NCAA to use as a comparison. Instead, I looked at how many players have tallied 50-plus points in the WHL during their U17 season. Williams tallied 57 this season.

In the last 15 seasons, 27 players have done it.

The most notable part? Nearly all of them have been picked in the top two rounds of the NHL Draft — or will be.

I know there was some speculation on where McKamey was gonna play this fall:

I can rest easy knowing that the NCAA regional games will continue to be played in half full arenas hundreds of miles from where their home arenas sit vacant.

He was just being silly.  There was no ill intent and I'm confident it would have been taken in a light-hearted and un-insulting way.

To be completely fair, Wilbur is a known first-class jerk whom I would not want in my family, which is already full of first-class jerks who are not goalies, which is bad enough.

Could not agree more.  +1

Andrew O'Neill going to the Dub to play another year of junior before coming to North Dakota. Very good plan to develop his offensive game further.

Agreed, good plan for him. 
Hopefully he can get top 6 minutes and special teams.
