[DWGie26]

Really stood out to me in camp. He scores a lot of goals in the paint. He might be somebody to watch in a few years.

He is big too at 6’5 210 or so. maybe he can be another Protas 3rd round gem!

Leonard off the score sheet tonight. What is going on with him?

He stinks?

Let’s add him to our complaint list?

Who said he stinks? I’ve watched now 4 of his games this year and he has been ok in each game I’ve had the opportunity to see.

I think it’s OK to ask folks why they think his numbers are down this year, no?

Sure? And it’s ok for me to reply to it?

Terasak with a goal.

Cristall with 2+2.

Cristall with 2+2.

Cristall gunning for 400 points.

Would put him top-25 in WHL history.

 

[Kazer]

Terasak with a goal.

Cristall with 2+2.

Not sure if Terasak is an intentional combo or an impressive misspelling. Either way, Terik has figured something out with 5+6 in his last 5 games after a slowish start.

Cristall leads the WHL in a wide margin by points per game (2.857 compared to 1.813 in second). Terik has climbed his way into the top 15 point scorers overall and is 11th in PPG.

Since we've talked about Leonard's slow start quite a bit, how about Nick Kempf holding a 2.39/.927 sv% in his first three games at Notre Dame (getting about 40% of the starts). Augustine is the sure team USA WJC starter but Kempf has a decent shot to make the roster as 2nd or 3rd goaltender.

Does anyone watch U of Minn closely? Chesley with an insane 7 points in 8 games to start the year (previous totals 10/8 in prior full seasons).

Plus, Leonard's start really isn't that slow compared to last year, maybe down a point. He's always been the engine of the line from the defensive and forechecking perspective, and lagged behind a bit on points. He's hit a ton of posts already, so I expect his numbers to increase as he gets used to playing with Hagens.
