[Section5Petes]

Was mentioned on the Import threat and 2008 born Latvian forward Olivers Murnieks could be an intriguing option at the import draft. Was on Team Latvia at the most recent World Juniors as a 16 year old. Currently playing for the Sioux City Musketeers in the USHL. A 6'1 and 190lbs Centre. This is the type of upside we should be aiming for.

The NCAA route isn't a lockout now but still have to be cautious with picking players already in the ushl I think. I know during the season they were asking exorbitant release fees, would they still apply for off season? Hosting Prospects game may be a draw but may not be as simple on the operational side of things. The same things obviously apply to Hage but he's already been drafted so that pick is already gone regardless, don't need the import pick possibly going to waste.
