Another collegiate blueliner in a similar spot to Lacombe, Thrun is heralded more for his two-way prowess than the raw offensive upside of Lacombe.
Thrun has been an all situations ace, and the team captain, for Harvard this season, leading the Crimson blue line in points (3-15=18) while taking on a critical defensive role. A native of nearby Southborough, Thrun has 10 points in his last five games (2-8=10).
In three seasons at Harvard, Thrun owns a +41 rating and 76 points in 87 NCAA games.
Like Lacombe, Thrun will decide on his hockey future following the end of Harvard's season.
Sam Colangelo, RW, Northeastern University
A big, burly winger with some finishing touch, Colangelo has come on strong in the second half of the season, with 12 points in his last 14 games.
Colangelo ranks fourth among Northeastern skaters in points, and tied for third in goals and assists.
Should he sign an entry-level contract this summer, Colangelo would be eligible for the AHL next season. If he does not, he would return to Northeastern and Anaheim would retain his rights for another year.
