AOM - Very physical. Liked engaging with people. Did have difficulty with the quick short guys like Phillips. Foot speed is an area he needs to work on, but that's the same thing with everyone.
Hickey - the drills weren't overly offensively oriented, so it was hard to determine on that front, but he was adequate defensively. Pretty much the type of playing from him that you would expect. Decent progression.
Kanzig - He's mean still, but is actually a more complete player. Still has a ton of holes in his game, but he is progressing. If he continues to progress as he has the last two years over the next 2-3 years, he could be a huge version of Deryk Engelland.
Falkovsky wasn't out there and I don't recall Bruce, so either he didn't skate or he was not noticeable in the same way that most of the walk ons were invisible.
