Okay, so yet another tryout has been added. We are very busy on the wire today. That's six, which is how many we brought in last year.
This one is noteworthy because it's defenseman Mason Klee, brother of our 7th rounder in the '23 draft, David Klee.

Any one know these guys/watch them play? Anything interesting here?
I definitely haven't seen them in college, but to give people an idea, here are the six names we brought in on tryouts at the end of last season: Anthony Vincent, Roman Kinal, Nathan Burke, Chase Gresock, Ethan Frisch and Connor MacEachern.
We brought four of those guys back on AHL deals this season (Vincent, Kinal, Frisch, MacEachern), and out of them only Frisch and maybe Vincent played any kind of meaningful role for the Barracuda. The others mostly wound up in the ECHL. So, maybe we strike gold with someone here, but that's about the level of play I'm expecting from most of these guys.
I have liked what I've seen from Bucheler thus far, though.
