Khodorenko.

Add Rueschhoff. He had a good college career and at times looked excellent in Hartford last year. Not sure any of the remaining guys to be added ever get as close as Rueschhoff.
 
I'd add Tarnstrom and Kempf.

I think it's a little quick to give up on Tarnstrom given how young he is and how weird last season was. He's still only two weeks away from having been eligible for the 2021 draft and his HockeyEttan output wasn't that bad relative to other prospects who played in the league (he outproduced Jean-Luc Foudy, for example).

My impression of Kempf is that he isn't a great skater or overly skilled, but he's smart, responsible, and physical. Those guys can play D in the NHL and the last 3 defenseman we've picked out of the USHL (Jones, Skinner, and Miller) have ended up looking a lot better than their draft slot.





"He’s physical and keeps a tight gap through multi-variable situations. In the DZ, he scans for threats and promptly eliminates them. He uses the middle lane when possible, looks for the cross-ice breakout option, deceives defenders in the neutral zone, and some rush activation" - EliteProspects Draft guide

The only guys I've really given up on are Ragnarsson (he's just not an NHL player) and Elmer. I don't really have much hope for Lindbom at this point, but, he's young and a goalie. Same for Ollas and Boyko. I don't see any real pro-level skill in Matt Rempe, either. Everyone else on this list I think still has a small chance. Aaltonen is another guy who is kind of pushing it--small and weak, hasn't produced yet. If he can't do anything in Liiga this year I don't know, I may be ready to give up on him despite the young age.
 
Who voted for Ragnarsson to be added? I didn't see any unless there was a late rush.

Khodorenko. Add Riley Hughes.

yeah this aligns w my thinking re these bottom, not yet 'added' guys
w Elmer, done so little since his breakout final WHL season earned him that ELC, and Ragnarsson, as it has evolved, least NHL-regular-likely

Ollas and Boyko can raise their stock w good seasons,
obviously Lindbom, Aaltone, Tarnstrom, too

Rempe may be able to leverage his size into a John Scott type-career

playing for good NCAA programs has been a productive route lately,
Hughes and Kjellberg should have bigger roles as Jrs
('Chelly' didn't play elsewhere, so I presume was in class at RPI last)
Kemp has time to get better w Cornell

I believe Kjellberg will get an extra year of eligibility, as well. So he's an academic junior but should still have three years of potential hockey eligibility.
