That 22 draft is starting to look more and more like a total miss from Yanetti and the boys.

 

[Frolov 6'3]

That 22 draft is starting to look more and more like a total miss from Yanetti and the boys.

I didnt like one pick in 2022 with exception of Salin and Sparkes who are longshots too.

On the same time, i liked every single pick in 2023.

This happens.

[King'sPawn]

Got a little behind on prospect updates. Updated the stats to date as of the end of 11/18.

A couple highlights from 11/18:
Ryan Conmy with a shorthanded goal and powerplay assist:




Two goals from Koehn Ziemmer, including what will turn out to be the game winner:




Hampton Slukynsky went 3/3 on the shootout, and made 16/18 saves in a 3-2 Shootout win. He remains undefeated in the USHL with a record of 7-0-0

 

[johnjm22]

I mentioned it a bit in the prospects thread, but I like Slukynsky quite a bit.

He strikes me as a guy who would've gotten more opportunity (and drafted higher), if he was bigger.

Sluk currently leads all USHL qualified goalies in GAA. While being a rookie. He's the only goalie that has a GAA under 2.

Been a long time since LA drafted a good goaltender.

 

[johnjm22]

I didn't see it posted anywhere, but he's also committed to North Michigan next year.

Yeah, I'm not sure how the goaltending is going to be handled next season. Northern Michigan's starting goaltender will be a junior next year, and their backup will be a senior. Their freshman goalie hasn't had any game action yet.

So, will he just be sitting on the sidelines in favor of the more experienced goalies, or will his talent be undeniable? Or, would he have to transfer to another team to get an opportunity?

I was thinking about that also, but I'm assuming he wouldn't sign there unless they planned on giving him a lot of starts.

[Eagle Fang]

I didn't see any update so apologies if I missed it, but is Dvorak hurt? I see he's only played 14 games this season.

He spent some time playing in the Five Nations tourney, too, which is just some international exhibition.

I don't remember hearing about any injuries. Might have been something minor. Liberec only has played 21 games all seaon.

Kings prospect update 11/21:
Alexander Dergachyov: scoreless
Bulat Shafigullin: 1 G, 2 A
Aatu Jamsen: scoreless (champions league). Originally returned to action 11/18 after being out for a month (injury)

 

[King'sPawn]

Whew, lots of fun highlights tonight.

Secondary assist for Otto Salin for the OT winner.


Ryan Conmy's goals




Matthew Mania's first point of the season, after returning from injury. A secondary assist.


Angus Booth snaps his 11-game skid with an assist. He has two total.




Koehn Ziemmer with 2 goals and an assist.






Also not shown (as no highlights were provided):
Hampton Slukynsky made 18 saves for his second shutout, 8-0. He is 8-0-0. He's tied for first in shutouts with 2, leads the league with a 1.70 GAA and is second in save percentage with .913.

Jack Sparkes got in a fight, but throw another 22 minutes on the play (2 game misonducts and a roughing penalty). So he had a total of 27 minutes in his BCHL debut.

Kenny Connors assisted on the game-tying goal then scored the game winner.
