Cornell at RPI

[ithacat]

2 of the recruits due to arrive in the fall are NHL draft picks - one taken in the 3rd round and one in the 5th round.

That's Starrett and Angello.  Both are big (6-5).  Here are their numbers this year:

Angello: 9-7-16 with 43 PIM in 30 GP for the Omaha Lancers of the USHL.  He's 6th on a team whose leading scorer is 10-26-36.

Starrett: According to Elite Prospects he hasn't played a game this year for South Shore Kings in the USPHL.  The only articles about him I found expected him to come in and replace Ferlin this year.  Last year he was 11-36-47 with 94  (?!) PIM in 48 GP for the Kings.

tl; dr: Neither is going to be Matt Moulson.

Of the forwards most likely to arrive next fall, Vanderlaan is currently 36th in scoring in the Alberta league (42nd in goals), that's about as good  as it gets right now. The following year doesn't look like it's any better as it appears to be almost exclusively power forwards.
