Top prospect Owen Power has said he’s strongly considering returning to college hockey to play for the University of Michigan again next season: “I think right now I’m probably leaning more toward going back to school. It’s something I’d like to do, trying to get the true experience of playing college hockey. At the end of the day, it obviously depends on what the team wants and what everyone around me thinks is best. I don’t think there’s really a bad option, but I’d say I’m leaning a bit more toward going back to school right now.” [NHL]
