I would look to Perron to take a big jump from FR / SO year.

Disappointing news about Blake, I was convinced he would be back. Kind of shocked actually. 

Yeah, I really think he’d benefit from one more year of development at this level.

It would absolutely suck if he leaves and I think one more year would help him. But it will 100% not be the biggest regret of his career. He was a really good player for us. Can’t stand some posters who put this stuff out. He may regret it a bit (I’m sure he will) but he’s been an awesome college player. I could see a scenario where he feels he’s ready for the next level…either AHL/NHL.

Well my sources tell me that your sources are not 100% sure on this.  At least I think that’s what they said.;)

The only way it makes sense to me is if CAR threw a rookie-max ELC at him and started his professional clock (one day closer to NHL free agency). 

If he stayed he could sign anywhere summer of 2025 (as he'd be four years after draft year, one USHL, three UND). CAR would not be happy losing that draft pick that way. 

Nothing here so far: https://www.capfriendly.com/

If he goes, he goes, and I'll wish him well.  I never fault any of these kids for making decisions about what they think will be best for them.

The only thing I hate is when players leave right before classes start in August (WeatherBYE anyone?). This would not be that situation at all.

If he leaves now, I hope he gets used to being a healthy scratch in the American. If he gets knocked down at this level, imagine what fully grown men at the next level will do to him. Ouch is the word that comes to mind.

Perron will progress.
Schmaltz can't have back-to-back stinker years, can he? 
Boisvert and Swanson are ready to step in. 

And Bubs pulled a couple rabbits out of his hat last year about this time.

How many more goals did Jake have than you this past season?

I'm sort of serious when I say, the coaches realizing what Schmaltz is and pulling him from the PP and making him 4C might be the most important off-season move that can happen.

So you see a "Peter Armbrust" role in his future.

If Blake plays at UND next season he would become a free agent Aug 2025 

That is why he should come back to UND next year. And he should tell the Hurricanes the decision is final. Blake gives up significant leverage by signing now.
