[Prominence Problem]

OT with a secondary PPA (very nice) on Dalpe's 22nd of the year.


Both players managed to put up a 0 rating tonight, despite their team giving up 7 goals.

 

[Prominence Problem]

I didn't post this last night, and couldn't post it this morning because of the merger, but Benning's Denver University won last night, their first game of the best-of-three series. He had two secondary PPA assists.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Uens' Merrimack team lost to UMass Lowell today 7-2, therefore so is his season. I watched most of the second. UMass dominated as they were the bigger, more experienced team. I've mentioned this before, I imagine he returns for senior season.
33 GP, 2 G, 17 A

In better news, Berger's UConn team beat Boston University 3-1 to advance in the Hockey East regionals in Boston, Massachusetts.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Both OT and Hepo with a goal and an assist tonight, but Charlotte falls to Springfield 4-3 in overtime.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Benning opened the scoring in Denver tonight. He joined the rush when the power play had expired, and got off a wicked wrister. Denver University is a period and a half away from moving on in the NCHC playoffs.

Nothing like scoring well the commentators are complain about the poor power play.

Benning gets the secondary PPA, as Denver wins and gets the series sweep.


Denver advances to the Regionals in St. Paul, Minnesota.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Quinnipiac with a 2ot 4-3 win to sweep St. Lawrence in 2 games and moves on in the ECAC playoffs.

Any goals from Smilanic?

 

[Prominence Problem]

Any goals from Smilanic?

Not tonight. Regardless, I see him coming back next year for a Senior season.

Here he is in the celebration (#96) in the final separate huddle at the end of the clip.


Quinnipiac advances to the Regionals in Lake Placid, NewYork.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Michigan & Samoskevich advance to the Big Ten championship game in Notre Dame, Indiana after beating Notre Dame 2-1 earlier today.

Man, Benning is a real talent. I really think he's gonna be an NHLer. How good idk but he's got the skill, the iq, and the skating isn't that bad.

33pts in 36gp is no joke!

 

[Mase]

33pts in 36gp is no joke!

There is hope, if nothing else, with regards to the D prospects in the pipeline.

 

[FlaPanthers11]

 

[BabyBennettov]

Don’t know if we’ll add at the deadline…

But OT should get a REAL opportunity next year.

Let’s see how he finishes the year, but the only thing left for him is establishing himself as a top-6 NHLer…

Owen has nearly and steadily passed all the tests through his career.

 

[Prominence Problem]

Since my last update on feb 15:

Sourdif 9gp, 6g, 11a

Haché 10gp, 0pts

Nause 13gp, 2g, 9a

 

[Dread Clawz]

Go Nause!

 

[16Skippy]

When Deni supposed to be back?

 

[Prominence Problem]

When Deni supposed to be back?

It's really hard to find injury news about Prospects. No idea.

 

[violaswallet]

so new favorite prospect: Sourdif. Tough year losing Levi and Smilanic.

not super attached to anyone else except for Priskie but he isn’t exactly a prospect anymore

Sorry for your loss bro. It's always tough losing your favourite Prospect. I like your choice of Sourdif. I think he's going to be a good second or third line player. He's on fire right now!

 

[Thomas Colavecchio]

Probably need to let the TDL pass, to see who remains from the 'Prospect' pool, to have a favorite. Not many draft picks left to offer, and those picks should be very late in the order. I too love the potential shown by Sourdiff, so far. To me I see some Trocheck in that kid. Of course, others may see that as well, and to get you need to give!

It will be interesting to see what happens, especially if they are truly all in on Giroux, as to who goes to Philly? Tippett, or Denisenko, plus? If you had a choice, who do you prefer to keep?

If I were to have to say two days ago, I think Sourdiff passed Smilanic recently in the forward Prospect rank. Ty has been struggling to finish the year in a weak conference, where Justin is white hot right now!

I'm partial to OT, but I think if this trade is going to happen, Philly would want him. He is good friends with my cousin from playing together in Saginaw, a good connection. Plus OT is tearing it up in the A right now, where Denny has been hurt for a while.
Also, not to get too political, but could this war be affecting Russian players/prospects?
I kind of think it's fine to sell high on Denny right now, if you still call it selling High.

This year's prospect vote will be over in like a week at this rate lol.

This year's prospect vote will be over in like a week at this rate lol.

Man, Zito's used our prospects a lot:

Borg, 2023 First, 2022 First, Koly, Heineman, 2022 Second, 2024 Second, Smilanic, 2021 3rd, Stillman, 2021 6th, Levi

Luckily Lundell hit.

I'd prefer to keep Deni: it looks like he could play with Barkov. I'm hoping we're able to re-sign Marchy so we can play Deni next to Barkov or Lundell next year
