4/2 Prospect and ECHL Update

Prospect Notes:
- LW Ben Johnson has signed an ATO with the Albany Devils now that his OHL season in Windsor has come to an end. Maybe we'll find out shortly if he is going to get an ELC with the organization.

- C Blake Coleman has announced he is returning to Miami for his senior season:

-  Swift Current PBP announcer, Shawn Mullin, interviewed C Graham Black whose WHL career has come to an end. You can listen to it here. When asked about his future with the Devils, Black was careful with his words not to reveal too much. I imagine he will be signed but who knows? Black's cryptic answer was, "Not really, there's nothing worth mentioning. I don't have any concrete facts or anything, so I would probably not rather talk on that." Take that however you want, but it seems like he doesn't want to upset Lou by saying too much. I could be wrong though.

- A fair amount of prospects either have to be signed or the rights will be relinquished to them. Below are the prospects and what I believe to be the correct deadlines. I figure Johnson, Thomson, Black, Bell, and Gedig are likely to be signed.
  • Players drafted out of CHL (6/1 deadline): Ben Johnson, Ben Thomson, Graham Black, Artur Gavrus, Myles Bell
  • Players drafted out of the NCAA (8/15 deadline): Joe Faust, Derek Rodwell, Curtis Gedig
