[Nico Cauzuki]

Kingston is up 2-0 in their series against Oshawa. They're currently leading 3-2 in the 3rd period of Game 3.

Wright has an assist so far tonight. He has 3 assists in total this series so far.

Thank you and great work keeping us updated with chl playoffs

 

[Adam Michaels]

Guhle with a goal and an assist so far. Edmonton up 2-0.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Windsor lost and now lead their series against Sarnia 2-1. But Sobolev was not in the line-up tonight.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Updated the OP with the games last night.

Edmonton take a 3-0 series lead on Lethbridge after winning 4-1 last night.
- Guhle with 2 pts (1G, 1A) / +1 / 3 SOG / 4 PIM / ** Named 2nd Star of the Game **

As already mentioned, Sobolev didn't play. However, I updated the Windsor series with Sarnia. Windsor lost last night and so they lead the series 2-1.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Habs prospects in playoff games tonight:

- Mysak & Xhekaj @ 7PM ET (Game 3 vs. Peterborough)
- Vrbetic @ 7 PM ET (Game 4 vs. Ottawa) - If North Bay wins tonight, they sweep the 67's.

 

[Tyson]

Guhle has raised him game to another level. Nice!

 

[Adam Michaels]

Mysak with an assist as Hamilton go up 1-0

 

[Adam Michaels]

North Bay completes the sweep of Ottawa.
- Vrbetic with 22 saves on 24 shots for a .916 SV%

- Mysak with another assist as Hamilton is up 7-2 with about 5 minutes left in the game.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Hamilton win it 7-2 to take a 3-0 series lead.

- Mysak with 2 assists / 2 SOG / 64% FOW
- Xhekaj with no pts / 1 SOG / 7 PIM

Updated the OP with the updated stats.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Windsor up 3-1 after 2 periods.
- Sobolev with an assist so far. His first career playoff point.

Hamilton is up 4-2 in the 2nd period.
- Xhekaj with a goal. His 2nd of the playoffs.
- Mysak with an assist so far.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

6-3 Hamilton over Peterborough. Looks like Bulldogs will be 2nd team to advance after North Bay. Xhekaj has a goal & an assist. Mysak an assist.

So Vrbetic, Mysak & Xhekaj all go through.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Xhekaj gets an ENG, so a 3 point night for him. 2g & an assist. He's such a monster on D.

 

[Tyson]

Xhekaj gets an ENG, so a 3 point night for him. 2g & an assist. He's such a monster on D.

Some say he will start his pro career in the ECHL, I don't think so.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Some say he will start his pro career in the ECHL, I don't think so.

Yeah, no way. He's a physical beast. His puck skills are underrated too. Knows how to use his stick & length to take away passing / shooting lanes too.

We'll see how he does at camp next fall, but he's not far from being NHL ready.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Windsor wins, so they take a 3-1 series lead. Sobolov had an assist and was a +2. One game away from moving onto next round.

And, potential future-Habs Shane Wright had a 3 point night, a goal & 2 assists. Kingston is one win away from moving on.

Guhle & Oil Kings can get to 2nd round tonight, but they're currently losing 2-1 Lethbridge after 1.

 

[RandomTask26]

6-3 Hamilton over Peterborough. Looks like Bulldogs will be 2nd team to advance after North Bay. Xhekaj has a goal & an assist. Mysak an assist.

So Vrbetic, Mysak & Xhekaj all go through.

If Kingston finishes off their series, they’ll play Hamilton right? Now that’ll be a good test for Wright

No, pretty sure it's Kingston @ North Bay. Hamilton hosts the winner of Mississauga-Barrie series, which is tied 2-2, so Hamilton will probably get a week off.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Edmonton now leading 3-2. 2 goals in 2nd. 8 minutes left in 2nd period.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

3-3. Terrible goal given up by Cossa. Terrible play by Kubicek who just blindly threw it up the boards, picked off by Lethbridge player, who's on the far LW boards & just throws it on net. It goes in.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Shots are 28-11 Oil Kings, but score is 3-3.

Not a strong game by Cossa.

 

[HuGort]

You watch any of Seattle games? Looking at the stats, Korchinski has 3 goals in 4 games. Kind of surprising in that he only scored 4 goals all year. Also Gustafson maybe one of our 3rd round picks? He's putting up points in playoffs

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Guhle misplays a puck, Hurricane player chases after it along the boards & Guhle just blows him up with a quick hit, gets the puck back.

No, but apparently Korchinski hasn't been great defensively. A lot of work to do there.

Gustafson is definitely an option in 3rd round. High compete level, sturdy build, good two-way center, needs to work on his skating.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Guhle is a McDonaugh type prospect imo. He's really tough to beat wide because of his skating & length, he can dominate the neutral zone & patrols both bluelines like a mama bear protecting her cubs.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Guhle comes under one on one attack, player tries to cross him, not happening, Guhle crosses with him, takes puck away. Nice cross.

Oil Kings score 4-3.
