Kurtis Gabriel, the Minnesota Wild will make a decision in training camp whether to sign (they can actually sign him at any time) and send him to Iowa or have him return to OHL Owen Sound, where he could be the big fish on campus. It’ll have to do with his Traverse City tournament and training camp and what his role/ice time would be in Iowa as opposed to Owen South: “[Assistant coach Rick Wilson] said the first time he saw him, he skates like [Milan] Lucic almost. He’s a big dude. Just crushes you. He’s really worked hard, great shape. This has been great for him, the power skating and edge work and so forth. He wants to turn pro. But if he goes back to Owen Sound, he’ll probably be a captain and play big minutes. We’ll see.”
