Dozark is a notable exception as he is a top 4 D in the US in that birth year and committed way earlier than the 40-man discussion.  His rights were also held by Portland which is a US destination and a top end program.  Much easier transition for an American kid. 

My understanding is Dozark pulled a Seth Jones and said if it's not in Portland pass on WHL. That's why he signed so soon after his rights were traded.

We have to be a front runner for him as an I-29 kid.

This is another factor for draft stock...according to AI (I was too lazy to research)

"Yes, the USHL being the lowest-scoring of the four leagues is a durable, long-standing trend.

While scoring fluctuates year-to-year based on talent cycles, the USHL consistently averages between 6.0 and 6.6 goals per game, whereas the Canadian Hockey League (CHL) leagues—the OHL, WHL, and QMJHL—typically hover between 6.8 and 7.5 goals per game."
