It’s Sunday and it’s time for your prospect numbers update.
With the all star breaks coming in both the AHL and NHL the Condors tucked four games in this week.
In the CHL, Lavoie keeps on producing while the European prospects have a slow week.
This week on Dusty’s show he looked at the comparison of Tyler Benson and Jesse Puljujarvi when it comes to their NHLe numbers. Worth a listen:
If you have a chance to tune in to our weekly podcast, Oilersnation Radio recently you will be able to hear my hot and cold performers of the week. My picks will almost always come from this update. Stay tuned!
Some players aren’t listed because we’re not sure where they will land playing wise, so you will see them added and noted, in the future.
