My really long shot commit would be Chad Krys from Ridgefield, CT, the former Oiler who is now playing with the USNTDP U18. Probably the best American defenseman in the 2016 draft. Will be very high 2016 NHL draft pick. BU or BC are his likely destinations though. Father played at BU.

From bchl.ca:

Penticton Vees defenceman Miles Gendron has been named the BCHL Player of the Week for the week ending March 29, the league announced Monday.

Gendron helped the Vees to two wins to begin the Round-robin semifinals and assisted on four goals from the blueline along the way. The Toronto product set up three Vees tallies, including Riley Alferd's winner March 27, and was named 1st Star in that contest. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound rearguard assisted on Demico Hannoun's OT winner in Chilliwack as well.

An Ottawa Senators third-round draft pick in 2014, Gendron is committed to the University of Connecticut for next season. He has 10 assists in 14 playoff games after posting just 17 points in 54 regular-season games.

From overtheboards.net, October, 2014:

98 F Evan Wisocky – NJ Avalanche U18 (NJ) – 5’11 – 175

Poised, measured scorer here who can play to match the game’s tempo and rifles pucks at the net. Solid making plays off the wall and when he moved down to play with the U16s in the 2nd half of the Atlantic Challenge, his talents were evident. Dart of a shot, nice skating ability. Reportedly was the best player on the ice this past weekend with dominant showings.

For all the crap Warde takes from some people he hit a grand slam with this hire. Cavanaugh is going to make us a contender sooner than some may have thought.
