Ufko is a smaller, puck-moving d-man. He was a good player on UMass and also the US U20 team. Probably a better prospect than the avg fourth-rounder and has been developing in ncaa.
They need bodies in milwaukee so they could probably use him right now.

Pumped about Ufko. Have a buddy on UMass who said he’s far and away the best player he’s ever played with. I think he has a chance at becoming a top 4 D man

Ufko is a RHD, and he wore the ‘C’ at UMass. He will probably need atleast a year in Milwaukee.
Ufko to me is like a young Tyson Barrie. More of an offensive defensemen. Adequate on defense, but he is not a shut down defender just like Barrie is not. But Ufko might be a little bit faster, and that would be good for Bruno’s system.
Right now, in Milwaukee, we have Prokop, Livingstone, Matier, and Gross as RHDs. Gross and Livingsone both played in the NHL last year down the stretch last year, but Gross will be a UFA at the end of this season. So Ufko will probably take Gross’s spot in Milwaukee if I had to guess.

Really excited for the future of the team, we have a really good prospect pool and I’m hoping we eventually get to see a lot of these kids up and playing for the big club sooner than later
