Here are the defensemen sorted by handedness, listed oldest to youngest:
RHD: Zmolek ('02), Emery ('06), Verhoeff ('08)
LHD: Jubenvill ('03), Wiebe ('03), Livanavage ('04), Strathmann ('05), Laurila ('06)
Lots of question marks around the RHD: Can Zmolek stay healthy? Can Emery contribute offensively? How will Verhoeff handle college hockey at just 17 years old?
