Sick goal by Carcone. He's been a bright spot so far. Chatfield looks like he's well ahead of the other kids defensively, Molino been good at times, D'aout looks decent too. Good to see some fringe prospects playing really well, I'd like to see what Carcone, Molino, D'aout and of course Chatfield can do with this team in the future and if they can threaten our top picks for roster spots.

Carcone x2!!

 

In other news, seeing a lot of mini Canucks protecting the puck with their bodies MUCH better than the last 2 games.  Looks like one of the coaches gave a very specific lesson after last game and its paying off.  Causing them to win a lot more battles and shift the play into the Oilers' end.

Carcone has been really impressive this Young Stars!

Another goal!

but is he just another case of small man syndrome? He can be a productive sniper on a minor league team. But he will have a long shot to make the big club. Only so much room for smaller forwards.

He can throw the body around, and his fight in his first game showed that he is a tough cookie. Plus his overall game is solid.

Too bad they didnt bring this effort vs the Lames - they really made those guys look better than they actually were.

 

Also, do you guys know the rules regarding who plays in these tournaments.  Jankowski is older than Horvat and is playing in this tournament (kind of a joke if you ask me). Im assuming that these guys have to have played less than X number of NHL games?  

 

Would be nice to see Gaudette , Pettersson  and Dahlen in this tournament...(yeah I know that Gaudette and Pettersson cant play here right now)
