No it wasn’t JT Compher (Sophomore this past season), Zach Werenski (Freshman this past season), Michael Downing (Sophomore this past season), or Detroit Red Wings draft choice Dylan Larkin (Freshman this past season) leaving early. So is this the first shot of many? That to be determined later. Those were the names that our own hockey analyst YostMeister was worried about possibly leaving early and if that happens next years team could struggle.
Michigan Wolverine hockey program lost it’s team captain Andrew Copp (2014-2015 season) today when he signed with the Winnipeg Jets and forgoes his senior year in Ann Arbor on a three-year, two-way, entry level contract.

I don't think I've been this shocked by a departure since Mike Brown. Copp is much better, but I didn't not consider him a flight risk.
