Lane Cormier is the captain this season.
Seems like an odd choice, but what do I know?

I think he brings a lot to the room, high character, worked his butt off to get into shape and tested very well in all fitness tests... earned a NHL Camp invite. I'd say with a young team he's a good pick for captain. I figured he would get a letter. I was for sure thinking malatasta for sure.

Kv.Klima tested the top or one of the top guys last year.

Which could mean they potentially plan to move out some of the higher end 19 YO's this season. If you look at it that way it actually makes quite a bit of sense.

Mike McMahon @mikemcmahonchn · 12s12 seconds ago Merrimack recruit Ethan Destefani makes Waterloo's 23-man roster. Dominic Dockery makes the Youngstown 23-man roster. TJ Walsh (Cedar Rapids), RJ Murphy (Dubuque), Keith Petruzelli (Muskegon) have all cracked their respective rosters. Logan Cash was named an affiliate for Tri-City.

Looks like Waite will be thrown into the fire tomorrow night.
Bouchard made it to the Oilers main camp. As did Wiederer with San Jose.
