Well I don't know for certain, but I lived next door to Imes last
year and talked a bit with him.  He indicated that he was VERY
interested in getting his degree, olympics or no.  He has stated
that he will come back next year and use his last year of
eligibility then.  Since he will almost certainly make an NHL team,
It would be difficult for him to them obtain his degree.  I would lok
(look) for Imes to sit out, and wait for next year, where he can
play and get his degree...
