Ice pick motherlode of forwards in USHL draft

It's Entry Draft day, so the Ice looked to replenish their forward corps which was the highest-scoring in the league this year -- but is also seeing many of its members move on to college hockey next season.There are also a lot of Western players (including a handful from the Phoenix area) and some beef, including a 6-9 forward and a 6-4, 213-pound power forward who is getting some peeks by the NHL. Nearly all of the Ice's 12 picks were forwards, although there were a few D-men sprinkled in. Combined with the Futures Draft picks, the Ice are going a long way to settling their roster.
