Blackfish: CanucksArmy Prospect Report – October 19, 2017

6 years ago

It’s time for everyone’s favourite prospect update, Blackfish: Canucks Army Prospect Report.

Elias Pettersson has continued to look good, the Canucks locked up Jonah Gadjovich and both goalie prospects have been great to start the year. It’s only one week that has passed but there is plenty to breakdown.

Just a note – xNHL has been added to the charts below to show what their production would look like at the NHL level.

CANADIAN HOCKEY LEAGUE

Western Hockey League

Name	Pos	Age	League	Team	GP	G	A	P	P/GP	xNHL	+/-	PIM	SOG	Sh%	SOG/GP
Kole Lind	RW	19-003	WHL	Kelowna	10	7	11	18	1.80	37.7	9	16	40	17.5%	4.00
Jakob Stukel	RW	20-227	WHL	Calgary	10	6	2	8	0.80	16.7	5	4	23	26.0%	2.30

Kole Lind was limited to four points in four games this past week. The younger has been so hot this season that even a PPG pace is considered ‘limited’. He has his 8 game point streak snapped on Oct 15, but registered an assist against Tri-City on the 17th. His 4.0 shots per game are very encouraging.
2016 6th round pick Jakob Stukel has 2 goals in 2 games this past week – he also had 6 SOG in those two games combined.

Ontario Hockey League

Name	Pos	Age	League	Team	GP	G	A	P	P/GP	xNHL	+/-	PIM	SOG	Sh%	SOG/GP

Matt Brassard	D	19-072	OHL	Oshawa	9	0	5	5	0.56	12.9	5	12	32	0.0%	3.55

Jonah Gadjovich only appeared in one game this past week, and then missed another due to a minor injury. Nothing to be concerned about going forward. The Canucks signed Gadjovich to a three year entry level contract this past week.
Cole Candella player four games for Sudbury this past week – he had points in every single game. He ended the week with four points (1-3-4) in those four contests. He did have rough outing against Oshawa on the 15th, going -5.

Brett McKenzie with one assist in two games for North Bay.
Defenceman Matt Brassard had three assists in three games for Oshawa. His shot totals are encouraging with 16 combined shots in those three contests. Keep shooting the puck and good things will happen.
