Been credited with extra assists sometimes days after his last game ended. Happened around 3 times now. Was 53 in 53, now updated with an extra assist so 54 in 53. 

[Jett Woo | D]

Another phantom point for Woo, 54 in 53 now. This has happened a lot to Woo throughout the season.

Assuming we don’t get lucky and land 1-3 (Hughes, Kakko, Byram in my opinion), we could be picking a centre in the 3rd tier: Dach, Cozens, Krebs Turcotte. Will be a very interesting draft.

[Quinn Hughes | #43 | D]

Should be 29 points in 25, had a clear assist on the 5th goal but wasn’t credited with one. 

 

Edit: QH has been credited with the 3rd assist now!

Madden’s OT goal didn’t count to his point total

 

 

It counted on the NCAA stats page and also HockeyDB etc I believe

[Quinn Hughes | #43 | D]

Anyone know why QH’s OT points in the NCAA did not count while Madden’s OT goal counted?

[Tyler Madden | C]

Looks like the NCAA counted Madden’s OT goal in his stats. Weird, since they did not count Hughes’ 3 OT points. 

[Tyler Madden | C]

Can anyone who has actually watched Madden play give us some insights on who his comparables are?

Byram is looking better and better stat-wise. Will probably be out of our range (10-15) during the draft 

[Quinn Hughes | #43 | D]

Multiple places saying QH played sick (flu). 

[Quinn Hughes | #43 | D]

Why are we so afraid to criticize QH? It’s not like he has nothing to fix and improve in his game. He is one of the best skaters ever, and he will do great things for us, but we shouldn’t pretend his game is perfect right now.

Trading Jake would have been another Neely move.  Guys like Jake (heavy, elite skating, elite skills, mean, tough, and hits like a truck) are very hard to find.  JB was smart to draft and develop Jake, so we have that type of player.  

Elite skills not so much to be honest; Jake has hands of stone at times. I think he will top out around 40-55 points a year.

[Jake Virtanen | #18 | RW]

35-40 points possible this year? 

[Elias Pettersson | #40 | C]

Anyone have news on EP? I am worried sick, can’t even concentrate on work .

Is it a confirmed concussion or is he going through protocol? 

 

I see he travelled on the plane to Pittsburgh.

[Quinn Hughes | #43 | D]

My 2nd favourite player in the draft after Tkachuk. Not disappointed at all we couldn’t get Tkachuk, Hughes is such a fantastic pick (had him as our 1st choice in the CDC consensus).

 

Sens got a 60-point do-everything winger while we got arguably the smoothest skater in the whole draft. So excited!

he said he never had a concussion in one of his interveiws, dont think he' lie about that, probs on record if he did.

That is great to hear, I am scared of concussion-related injuries but love Jett as a player.

[Jett Woo | D]

Seen a few posters talk about his concussion issues, but I haven’t found any info regarding it. Anyone have insights? I only see a shoulder injury.

I was at that game in Karlstad, the penalty was for a jersey infraction. His jersey wouldnt stay over his pants. 

Haha I didn’t even know there was a major like that

Rinkens Riddare candidate?

 

(Swedish version of the Lady Byng)

I would believe he is in the running for it. His 10-minute major was for having his helmet fly off or something weird 

[Elias Pettersson | #40 | C]

If EP didn’t get that weird 10-minute penalty during the regular season, he would only have 4 PIM and 2 PIM during the regular reason and playoffs respectively. 

[Elias Pettersson | #40 | C]

Another one!

[Kole Lind | RW]

Outpacing most prospects taken ahead of him; Lind is an absolute beast.

Adam Gaudette with 1 assist today. He now has 34 points (17 goals, 17 assists) in 22 games. He is also on an 8-game point streak.

2 assists now!

Nah. Glass and Suzuki are more skilled than Lind. Plus they play more important positions.

 

There is a reason people were surprised/mad that Glass and Suzuki were left off Team Canada for World Juniors. Lind didn't get the same reaction 

More skilled in what regards? If Lind plays same quality of competition with worse line-mates, while out-scoring both Glass and Suzuki, then it suggests they are atleast similarly skilled.
