Jamie Lundmark: Appears more determined then ever to show why he was drafted 9th overall. Despite playing on a team that is not necessarily better then his old one {Moose Jaw} he is by far and away Seattle’s best player. Two way hockey, with an aggressive touch and leadership. He is on pace to break 100 points despite only playing in 64 games {max}. Has played on every line for Seattle, and played all three foward positions. Is proving that his poor perfomance in camp was a result of the injury nothing more. Looks like the Rangers first line center of the future.
Filip Novak: A surprise at camp and a solid pickup by the Sather administration. Is bigger then his listed size and appears to be around 6’1, maybe 6’2 and about 185- 190 pounds. Will probably play at around 6’2, 200. He plays a similar game to Kim Johnnson but may be a little bit more aggresive. Doesn’t really look like a number one defenseman but a solid number two guy. He has done everything for the Regina Pats and his potentially moving himself into challanging for a roster spot next season with the Rangers.
Garrett Bembridge: Fourth Round draft choice in ’99 is having a solid season so far in which he has already netted 20 goals. Though not overly big, Bembridge plays a solid game and has a quiet aggressiveness to him. At 6’0, 190 he looks like a right handed version of a Jan Hlavac type player. Possibly a solid second or this line player, he is capable of playing any foward position. Though he is not signed at the moment, it would be a wise idea to sign him and take a chance. At the very least he is a solid depth player.
