His splits by month are hilarious.
October: 1.20 point per game
November: 1.70 point per game
December: 1.22 point per game
January: 2.10 point per game

When he’s cold he’s one of the best offensive defenseman in the league, when he’s hot he outproduces the elite forwards.

I get that Parekh rubs some people the wrong way and he does have some defensive shortcomings, but this kid is something special. The handling, edges, shot accuracy, and vision are simply elite.

Another 4 pt game with 10mins left in the 3rd, hes on some kind of roll

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Has 2 less points than Akey, Gibson, and Mynio combined. LOL

His defensive issues are overblown. At times he gets in trouble from trying to do too much. But one on one he’s a very solid player.

He now has 10 goals, and 9 assists in his last 6 games. If you need help to contextualize just how insane of production that is, that’s half of Yakemchuks point totals on the season, and 66% of his goals.

I've never been more excited for a Flames prospect.

Parekh with 1G and 1A keeping his streak going

Just casually took the CHL scoring lead for defenseman while doing it too. It’s at the point where I caught myself being slightly disappointed he only got 2 points.

@Yepthatsme, in a 10-7 win against Guelph he put one between the pipes and a couple dimes, we’ll take the 3 pts kids looking like he should.
GP-45 G-25 A-46 Pts-71 The 100 pt mark is going down to the wire with 15 or 16 games left, to lazy to check

 

[Bobby Holik agent]

Between late last seasons and early on this on this one his goal scoring was somewhat on a downtrend
glad he pick it back-up. He's a true menace out there.
All those Saginaw games finishing 12 to 8 had me wondering about his defensive but the scoresheet sure look nice!

He looks like he has the potential to be the next Hughes/Makar. Skates like Hughes and shoots like Makar with sublime stickhandling. Hughes was not great at all on defense when he first stepped into the NHL but figured things out over his first few years. Hopefully, Zayne can join the big club next fall and have a similar trajectory.

Zayne keeps it rolling with 1G 2A he’s playing at a very high level.
G46 G26 A48 Pt74 with 15 games to hit the century mark. 8-4 over SSM tonight and needs 26 pts in 15 games remaining. Not out of reach playing the way he has.

17 games left. Has a little more runway to work with.
