Andersson, Mangiapane, Jankowski, and Kanzig will all join the roster, and possibly Rafikov and/or Ollas-Mattson. Hopefully we see Lyon and Pribyl as well. Then there's a goalie to sign and maybe another UFA or two. Finally, the possibility of our first rounder jumping on board.
Sure. But several Heat players are likely going to graduate to the NHL next fall. Guys like Nakladal, Wotherspoon and/or Kulak may not be back in the AHL. Up front the AHL team may lose guys like Hathaway and Grant and perhaps one of Agostino, Shinkaruk, Poirier, etc. Some of our CHL prospects who are turning pro may merely replace the AHL players who make the NHL next fall.

How many contracts are we at right now? Does anyone know?
