    Already there is one very interesting name come up. Of course that is Refika Yilmaz of Ankara, Turkey. If she can play, what a cool addition to the CW international roster. I can hardly wait to announce her name at a Thunder game!

      I agree that it's great to see international players putting their names in for the draft! Claudia Tellez (Mexico) was drafted by the Inferno last season, while she didn't make the actual roster, it was great to see her give it a try.

      It's fantastic that players from countries which haven't traditionally had strong hockey cultures are willing to put their names out there and give a professional North American league a try. Even if they don't make the roster, the experience of being part of the draft and participating in training camps is something they can take back to their home teams, which will hopefully encourage their teammates to also reach for the stars.

      Personally, I love it because we learn about specific players who would otherwise be off our radars. I've never heard of Refika Yilmaz and honestly I wasn't aware that Turkey had hockey programs, but now I'll recognize her name!
