This is what seems weird to me. Each of those guys is better than other prospects like Martin, Lamb, Cundari, and Bancks. All 3 of those guys do have NHL potential (likely not more that 2nd/3rd pairing D-man and 3rd/4th line forward in Gordon's case.

I don't see the rush with Kanzig who has a year plus to sign, yet not getting those guys under contract.
