Really enjoyed Fan Fest today. It was my first time attending and there was a good amount of stuff to do.
I only watched the first two periods, but from what I saw outside of the notable guys (Barber, Bura, Vrana, Stephenson, etc.) I really liked Koules, Pinho, Elgestal and Saar. I tried to pay attention to the FA invites more to get an idea on who could possibly earn a contract or be a future player in the AHL/ECHL.
Koules really flew around the ice and made some really nice passes. Pinho was the most notable player for me the first two periods. He seemed to have a nice hockey IQ and made some great plays on both sides of the ice. Elgestal is going to be a pest. You could tell he was under the oppositions skin constantly. Saar was a big boy but he can use his body effectively and drove the net a lot.
Burakovsky needs to add muscle to his frame. He lost a lot of board battles one notably to Stephenson who manhandled him at one point and walked away with the puck
