I have to figure that 2 out of this bunch will make it through camp and preseason, and be on the starting lineup (more if injuries happen of course). Mackey is almost a guarantee at this point. Sutter is most familiar with Ruzicka and Gawdin, and one game of Phillips. Those are the front-runners right now.
I do think Pelletier will be an everyday NHL'er. Maybe this upcoming season, maybe not for a few years, but he seems like one of those really 'pro' guys that are way more mature than you would expect them to be, and play a really mature game already.

I'll throw Pospisil in there, as a
dark horse. Injuries might have slowed down an ascent to the NHL, though.
