In part due to injuries, questions will remain as to whether he projects to be an above average, physical second-line winger or a bottom-six energy player.

Skilled defenseman that thinks the game at a high level and could become an NHL lifer because of his two-way style of play. His skating is the only thing that is really holding him back, but he has a lot of time to improve that area of his game.
A defensively responsible forward with strong and gritty puck handling skills that only enhance his ability of driving the play to the net.
As a goalie, he is not likely to make an NHL impact for a few years, but Jones displays good reflexes, solid positioning and a good glove hand. If he continues to develop, with improved recovery and puck handling, Jones could challenge for a starting job one day in the NHL
While Shaw has significant offensive potential, knee injuries resulting in a lost season rarely work out perfectly, and his development may have taken a major hit. A full recovery from the injury could warrant middle-6 potential, but for now he's got a bit of a hill to overcome.
A good skater who possesses a wicked shot. Savoie seems to have the puck on a string and he is always looking to attack offensively.
Stay at home defenseman gradually adding offense to his game.
Quick, skilled center who works hard and can create offense.
Big-bodied centerman who played a hard, heavy game in all areas on the ice. Has a desire to win puck battles and sticks up for his teammates when needed. Not much of a playmaker or shooter, but makes a strong net-front presence.
Has the speed and skill to be a Top-six NHL forward.
