Ramo's style is similar to Kipper's, as well as Ortio and Brossoit's. From that youtube clip you can tell that Ramo isn't in the same conversation as Kipper, but that's not really a shocker. He probably could be an adequate starter for a rebuilding team, just like Marc Denis was for the Blue Jackets in the early 2000's.
Berra stylistically is similar to both Henrik Karlsson and Jonathan Gillies. Don't be afraid that I put Gillies there, it's their style, not talent. Berra has a better glove/blocker than Karlsson and will move to make a save, where Karlsson was more letting the puck hit him then react to rebounds.
Gillies, he has a glove and blocker that's of an NHL caliber and his positioning is a lot better than either Berra or Karlsson. If Karlsson is a 3/10, Berra's a 5/10 and Gillies is a 7/10 right now (that's without developmental time).
If Gillies wasn't in the NCAA, I'd actually have him as the front runner for the starters job even though he's 19.
