Ruopp, who came to Pittsburgh in the Zbynek Michalek trade, has spent the last four seasons with the WHL Prince Albert Raiders. He doesn't have the upside of several other defensive prospects, especially at the offensive end of the ice. Ruopp, 20, scored one goal and 16 points in 65 WHL games last year. He's nasty -- averaging 129 penalty minutes his last two seasons -- but a lack of scoring likely dooms his future as a fantasy producer. He's set to make his AHL debut in 2013-14.
