A few notes:

AHL vets Jason Williams and Ryan Hamilton are beginning to breakaway from the prospects offensively.
Curtis Hamilton had a nice week, but he needs to follow it up with another one.
Will Acton can clearly play at this level and make a difference.
Brandon Davidson had a terrific week, very happy he’s back playing.
Luke Gazdic scored twice in five AHL games before recall.
Laurent Brossoit had an exceptional game this week, encouraging game.

CHL

Kyle Platzer, Owen Sound (OHL) 18GP, 6-18-24 (1GP, 0-2-2 this week)
Jackson Houck, Vancouver (WHL) 17GP, 5-13-18 (3GP, 0-1-1 this week)
Greg Chase, Calgary (WHL) 15GP, 2-13-15 (Suspended this week)
Marco Roy, Quebec (QMJHL) 17GP, 8-7-15 (2GP, 1-0-1 this week)
Darnell Nurse, SSM (OHL) 8GP, 2-8-10 (1GP, 0-2-2 this week)
Ben Betker, Everett (WHL) 12 GP, 1-4-5 (2GP, 0-1-1 this week)
Keven Bouchard Val d’Or (QMJHL) 12GP, 4.63 .848 (1GP, 8.00 .733 this week)

Kyle Platzer is having a strong season, and remember his is a two-way reputation. Darnell Nurse continues to impact the game offensively in SSM and he played well in the Canada-Russia Subway series this week. Greg Chase remains out of the WHL, hopefully a deal breaks soon.

NCAA

Evan Campbell UMass-Lowell (NCAA) 9GP, 3-5-8 (1GP, 0-0-0 this week)
Joey Laleggia, Denver (NCAA) 7GP, 4-1-5 (1GP, 2-0-2 this week)
Tyler Vesel, Nebraska at Omaha (NCAA) 8GP, 1-3-4 (1GP, 0-1-1 this week)
Aidan Muir, Western Michigan (NCAA) 7GP, 1-2-3 (2GP, 1-0-1 this week)
John McCarron, Cornell (NCAA) 4GP, 0-1-1 (1GP, 0-0-0 this week)
Zach Nagelvoort Michigan (NCAA) 5GP, 3.68 .889 (did not play this week)

BCJHL

Liam Coughlin, Vernon 19GP, 7-9-16 (3GP, 1-4-5 this week)

USHL

William Lagesson, Dubuque 12GP, 1-7-8 (1GP, 0-0-0 this week)

Liam Coughlin caught fire this week (he should be dominating the league so is just catching up) and Joey Laleggia added to his nice start in the goals column.

EUROPE

Roman Horak, Vityaz Podolsk (KHL) 26GP, 13-6-19 (3GP, 1-0-1 this week)
Anton Slepyshev, Salavat Yulaev (KHL) 28GP, 4-5-9 (3GP, 1-1-2 this week)
Antti Tyrvainen, Ilves (SML) 15GP, 4-1-5 (1GP, 0-0-0 this week)
Daniil Zharkov Torpedo (VHL) 8GP, 1-1-2 (did not play this week)

The good news here is that Slepyshev is back posting crooked numbers. His NHLE is 78GP, 10-11-21 playing 10:45 per night. I hope we see him in OKC next season.
