The biggest holes are of course a #1 center prospect, and a #1 dman prospect, but hopefully this years draft addresses one of them... and we'll probably have the next year or two to address the other.
Most of the guys you listed are getting to the age where they can contribute. As are the 2 new guys. Good thing about these NCAA players is once they are out of college, they are a lot more developed than a guy fresh out of junior.

The key is getting a system and the right players who can do a better job of keeping the puck out of our own net though.
