Southeast Division Draft Recap
NHLHS Los Angeles Kings Correspondent Mike Murangi discusses the Southeast Division in his draft recap. Mike is a self proclaimed prospects expert and shows off his skills.
The Southeast had only one team qualify for the play-offs in 2010. Strange, because the division owns two Stanley Cups with the Lighting in 2004 and the Hurricanes in 2006.

Who could fill those empty roster spots?
NHLHS writer Erika Zimmerman discusses the Pittsburgh Penguins roster holes and wonders who will fill them come October.
Although the offseason isn’t over yet and perhaps another few free agent signings are expected (Please, Ray Shero, give us another year of Guerin!), it’s time to look ahead to training camp…or maybe that’s just me, impatient for hockey! I’ve been speculating lately about who will fill some roster spot for the Penguins. Who’s in the running? Who do I predict will be on the roster come October?

Prospect Profile: Beau Bennett
NHLHS writer Erika Zimmerman profiles the Pittsburgh Penguins first round draft selection from the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, Beau Bennett.
Building on his recent tendency to draft quality American’s high in the draft (Ben Hanowski (2009, 2nd round, 63 overall), Alex Goligoski (2004, 2nd round, 61 overall) both Americans), Ray Shero’s first round draft pick was California native Beau Bennett.

Prospect Profile: Jeff Skinner
This year, the NHL Entry Draft will see many names help change the face of an organization.
The expected top prospects: Taylor Hall, Tyler Seguin, and Erik Gudbranson/Cam Fowler all have the ability to step right into a roll with the likelihood of being drafted as the top three overall picks this year.
Of course, there are many different reports and projected draft spots for many of the players who will indeed be drafted, especially within the first round.
However, there is one skater among the masses who seems to be skating (if you will) under the radar and has the potential to be a top ten pick at the draft.
