8 years ago

We are back with another week of the weekly prospect report. There’s much to be excited about with Brock Boeser and Thatcher Demko in the NCAA, Carl Neill in the CHL, Anton Rodin and Nikita Tryamkin in Europe and even Dane Fox in the ECHL having a great week. Without waiting too long, let’s dig into what they have done!

Kyle Pettit skated in three games this week and picked up a single assist. He did get ten shots on net in this time frame.
Guillaume Brisebois has reached his previous year’s goal total, scoring his fourth of the season! Too bad his assist rate is not keeping up. He played in three games this week and picked up a goal and two assists, took a penalty, was a -3 and had five shots on goal.

NCAA

Name	Pos	DOB	Age	Team	GP	G	A	P	PPG	+/-	S	S/G	S%	PIM
Brock Boeser	RW	97-02-25	18	North Dakota	14	7	7	14	1.00	15	49	3.50	4.00%	6
Adam Gaudette	C	96-10-03	19	Northeastern	13	3	2	5	0.38	-4	25	1.92	12.00%	10

Matthew Beattie	W/C	92-12-14	22	Yale	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	0

University of North Dakota had a 4-3 Win and a 1-6 Loss at St. Cloud State. In these games, Brock Boeser had two assists, seven shots on net and was a +2. Boeser is the third highest NCAA freshman in shots/game.
Northeastern lost 2-5 and 0-3 against Providence on the weekend. Adam Gaudette had two shots and two PIMs in these games.
Neither Mike Williamson or Matthew Beattie played this week – both are likely injured though it’s possible that Williamson has been a scratch.

Name	Pos	DOB	AGE	Team	GP	Minutes	GA	Shots	Saves	Sv%	GAA	Record	SO
Thatcher Demko	G	95-12-08	19	Boston College	12	718:16:00	14	321	307	0.956	1.17	11-1-0	6

Thatcher Demko continues to disappoint (by his own standards) by allowing another four goals against. Boston College had a 6-3 and a 5-1 Win and in those two games he made 53 of 57 saves. Demko is dipping in the NCAA save percentage leaderboard and is only tied for second now (what a slacker).

Europe

Name	Pos	DOB	AGE	Team	GP	G	A	P	PPG	+/-	S	S/G	S%	PIM	TOI
Nikita Tryamkin	D	94-08-04	21	KHL / Avtomobilist	34	4	6	10	0.29	2	54	1.59	7.41%	18	17:52
Lucas Jasek	F	97-08-28	18	Czech / Trinec	9	0	1	1	0.11	-1	3	0.33	0.00%	6	7:27
Anton Rodin	F	90-11-21	25	SHL / Brynas	21	13	17	30	1.43	12	59	2.81	22.03%	10	19:28

Nikita Tryamkin has blown away his offensive numbers from the previous season. He played four games this week scoring two goals and adding three assists. He was a +5, took a penalty, and took ten shots on goal. He is starting to see a massive rise in his ice time.
Lukas Jasek seems relegated to the second tier Czech league this year and had a much quieter week than previous, scoring three assists in two games.
A strong week for Canucks’ asset Anton Rodin who skated in three games, scored a hat-trick, had three assists, was a +3, took eight shots on net and saw an ever increasing time on ice. He’s making a case for the best SHLer this season.

ECHL

Name	Pos	DOB	Age	GP	G	A	P	PPG	+/-	PIM	S	S%	S/G
Evan McEneny	D	95-05-22	20	2	0	2	2	1.00	-1	0	3	0.00%	1.50

Anton Cederholm	D	95-02-21	20	15	0	4	4	0.27	0	26	23	0.00%	1.53
MacKenze Stewart	F	95-08-10	20	5	0	0	0	0.00	-3	5	3	0.00%	0.60

Evan McEneny is still injured and has not played a game
Dane Fox is now the leader in points on the Kalamazoo Wings! He skated in three games this week scoring a goal and adding two assists, earning a +2. He also took thirteen shots on net and had ten penalty minutes.
Ludwig Blomstrand skated in three games this week scoring a goal and adding an assist, earning a -2. He also took eleven shots on net.
Anton Cederholm showed up to three games, and while he was pointless, he took six shots on goal and was a -1.
MacKenze Stewart also dressed in all three games, and was a -3. He had a shot on net and dropped the gloves once.
Curtis Valk’s rehab is slightly behind schedule, he’s been skating with Medicine Hat and isn’t likely to join the Comets till December. He will likely start with a conditioning stint with the Kalamazoo Wings first.
