With school around the corner, what recruit or names (speculative ) of recruits are going to fill up that last spot? 

Time is ticking. 

Classes start in about 18 days, registration ends in about 28 days. 
 

It will be a high end player or a depth transfer, no in between. If it was anything else, it would have been announced a long time ago.

They are likely running out the clock with these unsigned top guys and if they are unsuccessful, which is likely, they have a transfer lined up.

Starting to think depth add

UND just started following this player. He’s a Kraken draft pick. Something to watch I assume

Good catch. Per EP:

"

Josephson is a shutdown centre who outworks the opponents he can’t outsmart. He charges back into the play, overwhelming the puck carrier with an endless barrage of lifts, swipes, grabs, and hits. His feet never stop moving, allowing him to skate through the hands and win the positioning battle

It looks like our last forward spot has been filled. Right on queue, Schloss dropped a pod a couple of hours ago

Yep, that’s a bottom 6 grinder. Which is fine I suppose. If you can’t get a blue chip you might as well add a buzz saw

Slotting into the bottom 6, as a buzz saw/grinder and NHL draft pick-- sign me up.

Since the official team account is following Ollie Josephson, I am guessing he is at least committed. Looking at his history, he’s been the best forward for a bad Red Deer team. He just turned 19 about two weeks ago, which I believe would mean that he has two more years of CHL eligibility. Could he be for 26/27 or even 27/28?

He’s 19, but has played 3 full seasons in the WHL.  I definitely don’t think he’s playing 2 more years in juniors. 5 years of junior hockey is nuts.

A at 17, C at 18. Exactly the kind of kid we want. If it's this year, it gives Strinden one last chance to prove he's top 6 at this level.

He only has one year of eligibility left

My fault, I thought that you could play in the CHL until you turn 21.
