They’ve Got Prospects, They’re Bonafide. What’re You?

Time for our weekly jaunt around the world to see what the Hawks system is looking like.

You know, let’s go in reverse this time. We’ll start in Europe. Teuvo Teravainen didn’t scratch in two games for Jokerit. He’s at 12-13-25 in 33 games.

I can’t seem to figure out where Maxim Shalunov is these days, so I’m just going to not care until he does or doesn’t make it to Rockford next year.

Joe Gleason and Nick Mattson were a combined +5, and Mattson had a goal and an assist in one of the two games for North Dakota against UNO.

Paul Phillips was a -3 in two games for Denver

To All Those Kids Looking In The Night….Hey Kids

Time for our weekly round up of what the kids outside the system have gotten up to this past weekend. Seems like all we do our roundups now. Pretty soon I’m just going to steal a fuckload of drugs and document my descent down the rabbit hole for you. Maybe that’ll be more entertaining. I don’t know. If you have things you’d like us to write about that we can, say so in the comments or email me or something. I’ll be practicing my coat change like Daryl Zero in the meantime. Objectivity and observation, the two obs, people.

Anyway…

We Are The Young So Raise Your Hand

Right, let’s move farther down the organizational totem pole….wouldn’t that be a great pickup line? “Hey babe, you wanna move up the organizational totem pole?” Actually, that would be awful but kind of funny. Kind of like, “Hey, let me put my plus into your minus.” Or “Why don’t you come back to my place so I can overload your box?” Ok, now that’s over. Anyway, what did the kids get up to this weekend?

Shall we start as always in the Q? Sounds good.

Hey Kids, Rock N’ Roll

While we wait for what increasingly feels like we’ll be messages of doom after this meeting is over, let’s talk about what’s going on with the kids in the system these days.

As he cements his status as the Hawks leading prospect, at least the one outside of Illinois, Phillip Danault had a ho-hum weak with only five assists. That saw him drop to the seventh-leading scorer in the Q, so he’s gone back to being a total bum, obviously. As we say every week, keep in mind that the scoring rate in the Q can get a little silly. But still, 20 points in 12 games (9 goals) is worth noting.

However, his teammate in goal Brandon Whitney was having some issues with whiplash, as he conceded nine goals in two starts. Whitney’s save-percentage has dipped below .900 and his GAA is at 3.35. Elsewhere in the Q, Dillon Fournier got his season fully underway with four points in four games. He’s also a +8 in just six games overall.

Checking In With The Kids

Because we don’t really have anything else to do, we might as well and see what the Hawks’ prospects that are actually playing got up to the past few days, hmmm?

-Phillip Danault, cementing his place as prospect I’ve decided to be most excited about in the next few years, had himself a little weekend. In two wins for the Victoriaville Tigres Danault piled up five goals and six points. Last night in another Tigers’ victory, he had a goal and two assists. After six games he’s the second leading scorer in the league, with 12 points in six games. I guess we should hope this trend continues, no? A caveat should be that the Q is by far the highest scoring junior league, and numbers do get inflated. But two points per game is….well, it’s two points per game.
