Prospect Info: C/RW Matthew Savoie, 9th Overall, 2022 NHL Draft - Traded to Moose Jaw 1/4/24

[Chainshot]

Ironically, he wound up being held without a point last night, despite five shots on goal and being on the ice for a number of goals for.

 

[Chainshot]

Edit - I see that I am mistaken, the scoring table has changed one of the goals and Savoie was awarded an assist last night so his point streak continues. 18 points in 10 games and still holding down his own line.

 

[Gabrielor]

That series is a close one.

Poitras this year before getting hurt

ROR was one, if memory serves. Wyatt Johnson last year; he was a 1st but only 15 spots before Wahlberg was picked. It happens.

Edit. Misread the conversation.

That would be really shocking. When's the last time a teenager from the 2nd round was an NHL regular?

O’Reilly?

I forgot about hawryluk and bartschi thought they would end up as top 6 players they seemed to have had amazing talent but never panned out

That's a whole lot of NHL success.

Sabres twitter was complaining about not drafting Stankoven just yesterday.

Keep Savoie.

Keep Savoie.

Stankoven is nearly 2 inches shorter than Savoie which is the whole reason he went 47OA. There are plenty of talented small guys who don't make it past being talented small guys because less talented big guys in various leagues play the body on them and they break or stop being able to do what they did. We saw it with Savoie and he's somewhat stouter at the same age.

Are you saying we should be worried?

I'm equally as worried about Sammy and Quinn.

I wonder at whatever is bothering him that he missed a WHL playoff game and a couple games down the stretch for MJ. If everything is fine, that's not happening. No one came out with a "oh, it was just the flu" or anything either, including people who find those things out behind the scenes.

Good thing about Quinn is his are freak accidents. He can take the day in day out abuse.

Sebastian Aho played his first season (all 82 games) at 19, his bday is in July.

 

[Chainshot]

Already a -1 and just gave up a glorious turnover to Waterodt..

Make that a -2.

 

[Chainshot]

His night continues... double minor for high sticking after a review, still down 2-0 with his line and him having a hand in both goals against.

 

[Chainshot]

And Saskatoon scores on the Savoie penalty... 3-0 now.

The old dash 3 now - 4-0.

 

[Gabrielor]

4-3 now...Savoie has a point

 

[Chainshot]

...tonight's point (thus far).

 

[Gabrielor]

WE TIED.

Mateychuk.

 

[Chainshot]

Tied. This period is all MJ.

 

[Chainshot]

I love how determined Savoie has been to make up for the earlier errors. Something is going in the net - him, the goalie, Blades d-men, the puck... something.

 

[Gabrielor]

Savoie/Yager almost tie it. Saskatoon is under seige.

 

[Chainshot]

Late shorthanded rush, was hoping he would end this.

And OT it is. The Warriors shuffled their lines in the third and it paid off.

 

[Chainshot]

That pass to Calvert in front... sweet but didn't go.

And MJ back on the PK...
