Corey Elkins

Prospect Grade: 6.0 C  (About Prospect Grades)

Profile Contributed By: HF Staff

History

2008-09: Signed as a free agent after completing his senior year with the Ohio St. University.  After playing sparingly for the Badgers through his first three seasons, Elkins came on strong as a senior.  His 41 points in 42 games led the team and nearly tripled his previous season high for points.

Talent Analysis

High energy forward that can contribute from a third line.  Not offensively talented enough to be productive as a top six forward, but solid enough on both sides of the ice to be trusted on special teams.

Future

Added to the Manchester roster for the 2009-10 season for depth.  He is a longshot to make it to the NHL, but if players like Gabe Gauthier, Brady Murray and Matt Ryan have proved anything, it is that even a high energy forechecker can find his way into Staples Center for a brief moment in the spotlight.
