(Fre)elite Prospect
Pittsburgh & Wilkes-Barre fans are well aware of the organization restocking the cupboard by dipping into the pool of available NCAA free agents in recent years. Conor Sheary, Zach Aston-Reese, Adam Johnson, Ethan Prow and Thomas DiPauli are all filling roles that might not be available in other organitzations due to the seemingly endless “win-now” mandate that has often left the team housing nachos and arguing instead of announcing names on the draft floor.
This past offseason, the team turned their attention a bit further north and signed three undrafted CHL players to ELCs - goalie Alex D’Orio (18), forwards Sam Miletic (20) and Jordy Bellerive (18).
