The only players in this camp that I view as very likely to reach the NHL are

Kylington, Andersson, Valimaki, and Parsons

Plenty of potential, but a few hurdles

Foo, Mangiapane, Dube, Fox and Phillips

Long Shots with highish end potential.

Lindstrom, Ruzicka, Reinike, Malott

Ones that I think could be serviceable depth players if they reach

McDonald, Poirier, Lomberg, Fischer, Healey, and AOM

Of that list of 19 names, I think 6 of them become NHL regular players. If I had to guess, the top 4 + Phillips and Foo.

Don't think any of them outside of Parsons has top end potential. Some quality middle six talents and a handful of depth pieces.
