Isles have improved their Prospect pool recently through a # of trades. Also some shuffling has taken place among the rookies since we've seen about 1 month worth of activity.

PROSPECTS

1) Connor Murphy - Playing 20min a game for the Coyotes as a Top 4 Dman. 6'4 and can skate
2) Jamie Oleksiak - Playing 15min a game full time. Reports are he's performing very well.
3) Jason Zucker - Has emerged early so far. With Parise out will be interesting to see how he steps up.
4) Nick Paul - 4th in goal scoring in the OHL. Looks promising to make WJC. There's a reason he was included in the Spezza deal.
5) Adam Lowry - Has been moved to Centre and while he hasn't lit up the scoreboard, he's been playing very strong for a 20yr old rookie.
6) Brian Dumoulin - Has been involved in trade rumours as the Pens are looking for a Top 6 winger. Has progressed very well and will make an impact.
7) Joey Hishon - After a slow start has been much better the last few games and looks to get a sniff with the struggling Avs.
8) Jason Dickinson - Captain of Guelph Storm, power forward who is on PPG pace.
9) Mark Visentin - Former 1st round pick. Has progressed steadily so far. Not much action this year due to an injury.
10) Andreas Johnson - Late pick in 13' won SweHL Rookie of the Year last year and is well ahead of that pace last year.

We also have a 1st (15') which will add a solid rookie.

Our prospect pool has improved steadily, but we are still missing a true top tier blue chipper. We are hoping a few of these guys continues to progress and emerge as one, or we find one through a trade.
