If a team is knee deep in talented prospects, I can see not every draft pick being signed. This is not the case here, and should put more onus on the scouts to come up with prospects who can/will play in our system, ranging from the ECHL to the NHL level.

4th and 5th are still a long shot to make it to the NHL - and if its not believed they have a chance - best to let them go. The change in the GM position also means we will likely see more guys let go as Feaster re-shapes things.
