Kyle Chipchura –  Not the most offensively gifted, Chipchura is a solid prospect in that he works hard on the ice and does what it takes to win.  He will need some work on his skating and foot speed, and to develop more of an offensive game to advance to the next level.  Also considered to be strong on face-offs and in his defensive play, and has been invited to take part in Team Canada’s U-20 selection camp this summer.
