They might not be a Ruzicka away from being competitive, but they could be a Ruzicka, a Deuhr, a Pelletier, and a Coronato away. I'm not penciling these guys in as top line players, but if 2-3 become 40-60 point players it will drastically change this team for the better.

Because of the fact that the team, for no reason whatsoever, has log jammed our prospects for so long, we now have the biggest infusion of rookie talent coming into the system that the team has likely ever had.

No blue chip top prospects, but the best depth - with upside - in a long time for this team.
