Fun guessing game but it's Luke Goukler

With him and Slezak added, RPI's lead over the rest of the ECAC recruit class ranking should improve.

I’m not mad at that. Where do you think he slots in 2nd/3rd line or more a 4th liner? I like how we’re tapping into the USHL for last two recruits. Still lots of talent in the league.

I have no clue but we sure have an abundance of left wingers or at least left shots up front. Be interesting to see where everyone fits in.

It's tough to say because we have a lot of guys capable for those spots. He's probably around the same level as someone like Scherzer or Tapper and maybe slightly below Hadland, but with the depth of this team, I'm not sure if that puts him on the 3rd line or 4th line. It'll be fascinating to see who ends up in what roles

Think any of these left shots have or can play Center? Or even opposite wing?

One of the worst skaters I've ever seen get drafted by an NHL team

Sez- If he gets any bigger, he might not have to skate more than a few feet in any direction to block the entire defensive zone! Obviously said tongue in cheek - but we were in Buffalo for the draft and could not believe how big these kids have gotten. I am a just about 6' and 175 and most of these kids made it look like I was a Mini Cooper standing next to a Lincoln Navigator. It is not just their height but many of these kids are just broad and solid. Obviously we could not see how well they skate but their size alone was super impressive.
Also noted, just about all of the kids came looking like they stepped out of GQ magazine with great well dressed families and some of the best looking hockey moms I have ever seen (even Jenny had to admit it).
 
Re: the hockey Mom comment...
I remember when RPIRed would always remind us that a Tigers' visit to HFH was incomplete without a thread reference to Princeton Hockey Mom. LOL
