Defensemen
A puck-rushing defenseman with great size. A skilled player who knows how to handle the puck at high speed. Not the most dynamic player in the offensive end but capable of producing points. Needs to improve decision-making and defensive zone play.
Smooth-skating, physical blueliner who could become a depth piece at the NHL level.
A mobile, reliable defensive defenseman that plays an effective, simple game.
Mobile two-way defender who moves the puck efficiently. Potential 4-6 defenceman at the NHL level.
Two-way defensemen with a hard shot. Although he is excellent in transition, his skating is a worry.

Very mobile defender who possesses the ability to break out of his own end with a good pass or skating it out on his own.
Koromyslov has the raw tools to be a useful defenceman at the next level, likely lower down the lineup. He skates well and has a big frame, also possessing good puck skills which all combined makes him an effective transition player. As of right now, his offensive potential seems limited but if he can refine his game and add to his toolkit, that could possibly change.
Tyler Bertucci is a defenseman with a great hockey sense that thrives in his own end. He uses his body around the boards to create plays and opportunities. He is also very good on the transition with a special knack for passing.
