Impact Considering Anas was the leading point producer in the AHL this past season (70 points in 63 games), it shouldn't be a surprise to see him joining the team for camp.

Brown, Luke Johnson and Nico Sturm, defensemen Calen Addison, Louis Belpedio, Matt Bartkowski and Brennan Menell and goalies Kaapo Kahkonen and Matt Robson.
