Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) I’ll have to check but I think McDonough is now at 6 points (3G 3A) in his last 5 games, after being scratched for opening weekend and then going pointless through his first few games. Kid really seems to be rounding into form now, and has been a mainstay on the top-six, and is starting to build some chemistry with Madden and the other top players. Our college kids are all pretty exciting. Rathbone is absolutely killing it as a sophomore and starting to look like the player I hoped he’d be in college (especially when Fox left and opened up a vacancy as Harvard’s PPQB/#1OD). Madden is also looking like an elite sophomore who could put up some very nice totals (and ones that project quite well to the NHL). McDonough starting to heat up and possibly looking like he might be our newest late round gem in what’s becoming a nice little tradition of finding “out of nowhere” NCAA/USHL top tier prospects. And Jack Malone has had some moments, albeit in limited minutes on Cornell’s 4th line, chipping in some scoring. Fun group to watch, and would really be something if we could get 3-4 more NHLers out of this group, to join Gaudette (who is really starting to take the next step with the big club). Only “disappointment” in the college ranks might be Will Lockwood, who like the rest of the Wolverines has struggled to score, and now is out with an injury. Hopefully he can pick things up when he gets back into the lineup, and help lead Michigan out of their current funk. I still have high hopes for Lockwood and really like him a lot as a prospect. Thankfully, our other college kids are more than softening the blow, when it comes to Lockwood not quite having the start I’d hoped for in his senior year. Only issue with all these NCAA prospects might be contacts, as we may very well need to sign 3 of these kids as early as the spring. Nice problem to have though.

Fred65 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Rumour suggests Lockwood may not be signing in Vcr but rather in Ottawa. I can't say with Madden, Hogelander, maybe Lind all apparently ahead of him, I blame the guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) Canucks are in a good but funny place there’s no room for anyone who is not a playoff type player with NHL size. So McD does have the Size so he has a chance ,but players like Lockwood have a slim chance to zero chance of becoming a Canuck. Lockwood where would he fit in really? 3rd line No 4th line No. Ottawa yes.....be nice if Lockwood signed and played a season in Utica then traded to Ottawa in a year or two. McD Canuck future 4th liner maybe...if he has the grit and can skate. Edited November 19, 2019 by HockeyHarry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenAlien Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) After getting scratched in Northeastern's first three games then going pointless in his first four games, McDonough has come on strong with 9 points in his last 6 games. Nice stats for a freshman, even though he took a year after high school to play in the USHL. He said he was a late bloomer who was 5'8", 150lb as a high school sophomore and it took time to adjust to his new size. Could be a real diamond in the rough. Two assists and a goal tonight: Edited November 23, 2019 by GoldenAlien 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theo5789 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 The thing with McDonough is that he could be riding the hot hand of Madden and may not be as great as his stats indicate. If so, that just makes Madden that much better. So it's either that or we have a hidden gem in Aidan. Only positive news for a couple of later round picks by Benning and crew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 This could be a gem from 7rh round.. 6'3 200lbs power forward. We need more of these types of prospects. Could be a player in 3 or 4 years.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
