Now that the Chicago Wolves have begun their season, I feel that now is as good of a time as any to talk about certain storylines that I’m going to be paying close attention to this season. Whether it’s a player’s contract year, someone in need of development or something else, this should give you all an idea of some of the players that I’m keeping a closer eye on.
I’ll be starting with one of two prospects due for a contract this year: Jack LaFontaine.
What Happens With LaFontaine?
LaFontaine won the Mike Richter award last season as the NCAA’s top goalie along with being named a first-team All-American, the Big Ten’s best goaltender, an All-Star in the Big Ten, the Big Ten tournament MVP and a Senior Class All-American.
