That stinks. He was healthy scratched when Allison returned. I wonder how much that had to do with him deciding to leave.

You can't stop a percentage of players jumping the program to go play in the pros. I think it's a mistake on their part, they certainly won't hurt their game by staying at Western and finishing a career there. But maybe this guy just wasn't academically inclined and wanted to make some folding money? There will always be that.

But, hopefully you screen these guys out when you recruit them. If they appear wishy-washy on getting a college degree don't waste your time recruiting them further, it's throwing good money after bad.

RE: Wade Allison is.........
Was told the reason as well , to much pressure, afraid to make a mistake, 30 men on roster . Some don't thrive in that environment , to bad we had gotten of to a poor start he would have had time to get use to that first . Something like an Iacopelli he had to change his style of play from juniors to college . Difference is Iacopelli was 21 when he started Cotter 18/19 years of age so had junior options left . It is not that big of a deal this year but i think a year or two down the road he could have really helped us . It happens .

He won't avoid the pressure on London, I can assure you and him of that. Roster is too heavy. If I was a player, I would want to play.

RE: Wade Allison is.........
He will be one of the older guys in playing against some kids 2 - 3 years younger . He is a late 99 birth date and the speed strength and structure of the OHL will allow him to thrive more on the stat sheet . In College hockey he is young and time space is limited and lack of strength was quite evident . Anyways off to the next he is past tense .
