Read my mind. Agostino looked pretty solid in his handful of games last year, and was pretty snakebitten on some very good scoring chances that I think, had they gone in, we'd be rating him a little higher. He looked like an NHL player, maybe not more than a 3rd liner with some goal scoring touch (*cough* Glencross replacement *cough*), but he looked like he belonged. He thinks the game quite well, and if he can get his conditioning up and a quicker first step he could be an NHLer soon.
I said it before, but I'll say it again, Kulak will likely be groomed as a top 4 defender PP quarterback for
Abbotsford Adirondack this year, and will probably earn a call up at some point in that time should we need a more offensive defender.
Looking at the next 5 choices, for me it would be Agostino, McDonald, Smith, Culkin, Hickey.
