Edward Pasquale was one of the best goalies the OHL had to offer during the 2009-10 season and he collected 32 wins while appearing in all but 7 games for the Saginaw Spirit. He is a workhorse who can relied upon night in and night out. I feel that Atlanta got a steal when they drafted him in the 4th round since he has all the making of a future NHL starter. His 6'2'' frame fits the new trend in teams choosing larger goaltenders perfectly and his glove-hand and rebound control are excellent. He has had a rough time adjusting to the AHL and is currently spending time in the ECHL, but I wouldn't be too worried about that as goalies are know to take a little longer to develop than position players. Don't be surprised if you see Edward in the NHL by the 2012-13 season.
