I can reply based on my knowledge and experience with the CIC rules. If you come back to Canada in Dec 2017, you will still be good with regards to your residency requirements and PR status as officially in a 5 year period you are allowed to be outside Canada for a 3 year period. As Per CIC rules, you should be able to show a stay of 730 days (or 2 years) in Canada during the 5 year period since you became a PR. Looking at the information you have provided here you should be Ok. Hope this helps, good luck !
