The Original FFIV · 08-07-2014, 08:43 AM

Incredibly bored right now with lack of news/activity so spent last night coming draft lists and the below 10 NCAA prospects are scheduled to become UFAs August 15 (in addition to Kevin Hayes):

Mark Adams D Buffalo - seems to be an injury riddled prospect

Derek Rodwell LW New Jersey - seems destined to be an energy, checking forward

Jeff Costello LW Tampa Bay - has already seen his rights traded twice, TB will not offer him a contract and want him to come to camp in Sept to see what he's got

Michael Cichy C Montreal - undersized C prospect

Max Tardy C St Louis - appears to have struggled adjusting to the college game. Would top out as a bottom six player

Nathan Codon C Colorado - good puck skills but one dimensional

Martin Oullette G Columbus - put up good numbers at U of Maine, if we have an opening in Colorado, why not?

Cody Ferrerio C San Jose - undersized forward, brother of Benn Ferrerio

Luke Moffatt RW Colorado - two way winger with upside but lacks explosiveness

Gus Young D Colorado - Flames should be all over this guy as Colorado doesn't seem too interested in signing him and given our lack of depth on D prospects wouldn't be a bad pick up. Rumored to have many suitors if he makes it to UFA

Here's a an article on Gus Young. Teammate of Agostino's at Yale so a possible connection:

Yale's Gus Young still waiting on Avs

Yale senior defenseman Gus Young remains unsigned by the Colorado Avalanche, the team that drafted him five years ago. With the August 15 deadline rapidly approaching, it appears he'll hit the free agent market.

New management, led by coach and VP of operations Patrick Roy, have taken control of the team since the Avs took Young in the seventh round out of Noble and Greenough Prep School. Roy doesn't seem particularly interested in signing most of the college players selected by the previous regime. Several sources have said Young will receive plenty of interest if he hits the free agent market next month.

Young, a 6-foot-2 and 207 pounds, was a steady and physical presence on Yale's blue line his final three seasons, most notably on the Bulldogs national championship team. Last winter he elevated his offensive game to register career highs of seven goals and 11 assists.
