OK, so I take it Geordie Woodrick is up next for his Entry-level Deal?
I wonder how our two Russians while adjust playing in the CHL. Myself, I think Lokitonov will dominate in the OHL, but I think Owen Sound has a weak team this year, but Moncton I believe has a real strong team. Moncton made it to the Memorial Cup last year, and almost won it.
I'm sure it will be tough on them, because they will most likely be the only Russians on their teams. I wonder how their English is?

He was a second-round pick of the Los Angeles Kings in the 2008 NHL draft and The Hockey News ranks him as that organization's 10th best prospect, calling him a \\"slick puck-moving rearguard brimming with poise.''
He's not here for the start of Wildcats camp and it's anyone guess when -- maybe if -- he's going to show up. It depends whether Los Angeles assigns him to the American Hockey League or QMJHL. He's eligible for the minor pros at this age because he was NHL drafted out of Europe.
