The Olympics are here, which means that quite a few of the European leagues are on a break, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t story-lines to cover this week.
The injury bug has been running rampant through the Canucks prospect world, which casts a bit of a shadow but the Comets have been playing well.
This will be shorter than usual version but let’s dive in!
All the images of stats are from Elite Prospects.
