Chase Pearson is the add. Some of you guys said Nosek should be in here but didn't list him as your add... so maybe next round lol.

Hronek.
Not a knock on cholo, he's just been that good. Spirit suck this year and he is still killing it all while adjusting to the smaller ice.

Sometime soon we need to add a guy who is quietly putting together a good rookie season - Renouf

Cholowski, completely based on what I saw at the development camp. The guy looked like a hockey genius which is something this team is really starting to lack in our youth.

Picked Russo, but probably solely because I haven't seen Hronek this year. Aside from him and perhaps Cholo (same issue), I don't think anyone else in the prospect pool is exciting or interesting. Lots of 3rd/4th liners (Bert), 3rd pairings (probably Russo), and career AHLers/floaters.

Interesting comment. Too bad I've never seen Cholo on the ice anywhere.

I agree, but then again our prospect pool is the weakest it's been in a while in my opinion.
Maybe, but at least it has more promise on D than it has in a long time (2011-12?). And with a lot of recent promotions a prospect group always looks a little thin.

Hronek, add Sambrook

Also, I want to like Cholo but I havent seen him play yet and hes either got to produce on the score sheet, look good when I do get the chance to see him play, or have a few other people who do watch him compliment his play. Until then simply being a 1st round pick doesnt cut it, especially for a reletively unknown 1st rounder.

Well, he is 2nd in U-19 defensemen scoring in all of NCAA hockey.
