Didn't expect any of them to stick.
Out of that bunch, I think Teply will become the best player. His stock shot up significantly last year playing in the WHL and he's one guy I'm going to keep my eye on. If he can dedicate himself to working on his skating he just might blossom into a big top six wing.
Barratt I want to like and he has obvious talent, but something seems missing. I don't know if it was the hip surgery, but his skating didn't seem at all what it was this TC. He took a step back imo. He's better off sticking in Rockford and refining his game. He might be the only player on this list who I think would benefit from playing the entire year in the A, work and refine, become the man on the Hogs, and step into the 3C role next year for the Hawks. His hands are too good and I can see him becoming a Brent Sutter type.
I'm not sold on any of the defenseman.
