Russia has not announced their roster yet, although the Pittsburgh Penguins don't have any KHL prospects so ultimately it doesn't effect us. However, the other 3 teams have been announced.

The QMJHL roster doesn't feature any Pens, though there are some draft picks to keep an eye on. Baie-Comeau Drakkar's D Alex Vanier and Sherbrooke Phoenix' C Daniel Audette will be eligible for the 2014 NHL Draft plus undrafted prospects Saint John Sea Dogs' G Sebastien Auger and Rimouski Oceanic's LW Anthony DeLuca.

The OHL roster features Penguins G prospect Matthew Murray who is off to an amazing start this year. They also have some impressive draft picks to watch. Barrie Colts' D Aaron Ekblad, Oshawa Generals C Michael Dal Colle, and Kingston Frontenacs LW Sam Bennett will be eligible for the 2014 NHL Draft. Erie Otters' C Connor McDavid is expected to be the #1 overall prospect in the 2015 NHL Draft and is by far the youngest player participating. Plus undrafted prospect Sudbury Wolves' C Mathew Campagna.

Ekblad is currently ranked at #1 by Future Considerations and TSN Bob McKenzie, #2 by ISS, Hockey Prospect, and TSN Craig Button, #3 by ESPN Corey Pronman, and #7 by McKeen's. Bennett is ranked #3 by Future Considerations and TSN Craig Button, #4 by ESPN Corey Pronman, #5 by TSN Bob McKenzie, #9 by ISS, and #17 by Hockey Prospect and McKeen's.

The WHL roster features Penguins D prospect Derrick Pouliot who is back on the same point per game pace he was at last season. There are also a few draft picks you'll want to see. Kootenay Ice's C Sam Reinhart is eligible for the 2014 NHL Draft. In addition, undrafted prospects Swift Current Broncos' C Colby Cave and Kootenay Ice's RW Jaedon Descheneau.
