Lewis is a hulking behemoth who was playing in the USHL.

Panwar played with Othmann in Flint. He's a big nothing IMO.

Siedem played with Karpa at Harvard. He's okay, can move the puck a little. Not a pro, I don't think.

Bookman played with Ollas and may be a late bloomer. Worth a look.

The rest I've either never seen or don't remember seeing.

A couple of these guys were eligible for this year's draft and not taken. I doubt any of them are signed.

Two are drafted players who were unsigned by their teams. Ryan McCleary was a 7th round draft pick in 2021 by Pittsburgh. Big right handed defenseman.

Max McCue was a 2021 5th round pick by San Jose. Played at London. Didn't score much.

Sahil Penwar played with Peterborough but was traded to Hamilton where he exploded with 52 points in 34 games. 6'1" 185 pounds plays center and left wing.

Joe Arntsen is a big left D from Lethbridge.

The two guys that got the most attention from those following free agents were Luke Krys and Ryan Siedem, both big RD who went to the transfer portal to move to different schools.

Krys is from Ridgefield Connecticut and transferred from Brown to Providence.

Ryan Siedem also is 22 and is from Madison New Jersey. He transferred from Harvard to Notre Dame.

In Corey Pronman's February ranking of upcoming free agents he listed Kris at 11 as having a chance to play in the NHL and Siedem at 27 as a long shot to play in the NHL. Pronman said he can skate, compete and defend well, wit his issue whether he can move the puck well enough in the NHL although he said he showed flashes of having that ability.

Pronman said Siedem is intelligent, can make a good first pass and showed improvement in his offensive game. The issue with him is his skating. Chris Peters noted Siedem as a notable free agent.

Brock Outen who covers the OHL said in an article on OHL overagers noted Panwar's big improvement with Hamilton and said he skates well and is competitive at both ends of the ice.

My guess is that these last three plus McCleary and Arntsen have the best chance of getting a contract offer from either the Rangers or Hartford.

None of the 2019 and prior drafts are there with the exception being Lindbom, simply because they don't have enough goalies in their system to get to 4. I guess they couldn't get a 2nd goalie invitee to add to the roster.

m actually surprised we didnt draft a goalie in the late rounds. We definitely need to next year.
 
Once upon a time, in the bustling city of New York, the New York Rangers were gearing up for their annual prospect development camp. The camp was a crucial event, where talented young hockey players had the opportunity to showcase their skills and impress the coaching staff. Little did they know that a sinister plan was brewing behind the scenes.


Unbeknownst to the hopeful prospects, a group of four individuals had joined the Rangers' player development staff: Jed Ortmeyer, Tanner Glass, Matt Hunwick, and Mark Ciaccio. They were infamous for their questionable tactics and unscrupulous methods, and their sole purpose was to sabotage the prospects' chances of success.


As the first day of the camp dawned, the prospects arrived, filled with excitement and anticipation. The four villains watched from the shadows, each with a twisted smile etched across their faces. They had devised a plan to exploit the weaknesses of each young player, aiming to shatter their confidence and hinder their progress.


Jed Ortmeyer, the master manipulator, approached the first prospect, Drew Fortescue, a skilled defenseman with great potential. Jed pretended to be a helpful mentor, offering advice on improving his defensive game. However, every tip he gave Jack was designed to disrupt his natural instincts and make him doubt his abilities.


Tanner Glass, known for his physicality, targeted the second prospect, Gabriel Perreault, a promising forward. Tanner consistently checked and harassed Perreault during drills, leaving him frustrated and disheartened. With every bone-crushing hit, Tanner aimed to intimidate and break the spirit of the young player.


Matt Hunwick, a former defenseman himself, honed in on Talyn Boyko, a talented goaltender. He deliberately shot pucks at Boyko’s weak spots, exploiting his insecurities and causing him to doubt his abilities. Matt's goal was to ensure he developed a fear of certain shots, crippling his confidence between the pipes.


Lastly, Mark Ciaccio, an expert in conditioning, targeted Brennan Othmann, a potential star forward. Mark pushed Brennan to his limits, making him endure grueling workouts that went beyond the reasonable expectations for a prospect development camp. He wanted to break Brennan physically and mentally, ensuring he would be too exhausted to perform at his best.


Days turned into weeks, and the prospects began to feel the weight of the four villains' actions. Their spirits waned, and their dreams started to fade. The once-promising players were on the brink of giving up.


However, fate had other plans in store.


Peter Laviolette, a seasoned coach known for his keen observation and strong moral compass, had been monitoring the development camp from a distance. He had noticed the unusual behavior of Ortmeyer, Glass, Hunwick, and Ciaccio and became suspicious of their intentions.


Confronting the four villains, the coach exposed their treacherous scheme. The truth came to light, and the prospects finally realized they had been victims of a malicious plot. The Rangers organization swiftly dismissed Ortmeyer, Glass, Hunwick, and Ciaccio from their positions, ensuring justice was served.


With the villains gone, the prospects were given a second chance. The coach rallied the players, instilling confidence in their abilities and reminding them of their potential. They embraced their true talents, and under the guidance of the caring coaching staff, the prospects flourished.


The prospect development camp became a turning point for the young players. They emerged from the shadows of the four villains stronger and more determined than ever. Their dreams were no longer tarnished by the evil deeds of Ortmeyer, Glass, Hunwick, and Ciaccio.


Years later, Perreault, Fortescue, Boyko, and Othmann stood side by side on the ice at Madison Square Garden, proudly wearing the New York Rangers' jerseys. The end.
