It really is too bad Miss is terrible. Playoffs would be great for Mikey. Bingo wont be sniffing playoffs either.

I hope he gets traded to a contender.

Then it's possible he get's some play in NJ at the end of the year.

Saturday's Activity:


NCAA:
Joey Anderson - 1 goal (PP), 2 assists, +4, 2 shots, won 2 of 6 draws, 2nd star in Minnesota-Duluth's 6-2 win at Nebraska-Omaha

Jeremy Davies - 1 goal (PP), -1, 3 shots in Northeastern's 5-2 win at Boston College
JD Dudek - DNP (healthy?) for BC

Matt Hellickson - -1, 1 shot, 1 blocked shot in Notre Dame's 6-2 win at Wisconsin


Sunday's Activity:

OHL:
Michael McLeod - 2 goals, -1, 4 shots, won 24 of 31 draws, 3rd star in Mississauga's 5-2 loss vs. Hamilton
Marian Studenic - 1 assist, +2, 4 shots for Hamilton

Evan Cormier - win, stopped 33 of 34 shots in Saginaw's 3-1 win at Oshawa

WHL:
Colby Sissons - 1 goal, +2, 2 shots in Swift Current's 6-1 win at Edmonton

NCAA:
Brett Seney - 1 assist +1, 3 shots, won 5 of 6 draws in Merrimack's 4-3 win at New Hampshire

I was looking at Anderson's season stats and was thinking, They aren't as bad as I thought. That 3 point night helped.

Minnesota-Duluth lost their top 3 goal scorers from last year and their #1 point producer. So not that surprising to see Joey's #'s dip, especially his assist #'s. But it would be great to see him take more of an offensive leaders role. Especially as a goal scorer.

 

[Better Call Sal]

I'm really impressed with the season Davies has been having.

Are we going to have a WJC thread or we'll just use this one?

I vote for a WJC thread

I'm really impressed with the season Davies has been having.

I'm curious how much is driven by his ability or just that he's playing with 2 of the top ~10 scorers in the NCAA. As a Northeastern grad I'm excited about the season they're having so far...probably gonna look into taking a trip to Boston for the Beanpot. Maybe even Minneapolis in April for the Frozen Four depending on how the season plays out.

Northeastern’s offence is stacked. Not to take anything away from Davies but playing with Hockey East’s top 2 scorers(Gaudette and Sikura) has to help his #’s

 

[Emperoreddy]

Davies also looked good at lrookie camp

 

[The Devil In I]

I agree.

 

[Quest for Stanley]

Merrimack is weak. Brett Seney is 3 away from 100 College career pts

 

[The Wumpus]

I vote for a WJC thread

Seconded, as there will be a lot going on beyond just our prospects.

As long as the draft second guessing bullshit is kept to a minimum. Those threads too frequently descend into that.

Other than maybe McLeod and Brown are there even any debates that could spring up for NJ prospects? I don’t think anyone is bemoaning any of the picks since Castron took over and at this point the Conte era picks have all aged out, haven’t they?

Doubtful, I think we’re all happy with Castron so far. My disappointments are minor, I was hoping for a defenseman at the Boqvist pick but I’m happy we have him. I was also interested in the Devils taking a shot on Cliff Pu in 2016 but it wasn’t meant to be. Overall I think Castron has done an amazing job.

I think most NJ fans are very happy with Castron’s work. The early returns are certainly good - a surprise in Bratt and a seemingly good choice in Nico over Patrick (not dissing Patrick just saying Nico makes more sense for NJ and his play so far shows why) and the relatively high number of NJ prospects with a chance to play at the WJC the fan base has hope which was in short supply by the end of the Lou era.

Great late round picks with NHL potential

 

[Quest for Stanley]

Seney is putting up decent #’s on a weak team in tough Hockey East. NHL caliber skating & skill. Has potential to be the next Bratt. Does he sign or become UFA?

 

[Emperoreddy]

I expect Seney to get a contract this offseason.

Agree. NJ or UFA?

Should be lots of interest.

Seney’s production would be scary good playing for Duluth, BC, Notre Dame, Northeastern or Harvard

Doesn’t matter. Most college players don’t go the free agent route.

 

[Scorcho]

Because he cant handle being away from his brother. Sure.

He's also from missasauga, so there's that - it's a big deal for him and ryan to be playing their OHL hockey there

 

[Zippy316]

I expect Seney to get a contract this offseason.

At the very least, I expect him to be a top AHL forward like Lorito was and Lappin is now.

I'm curious about his potential though. Would love to get a Sheary-lite out of him, but I'm not sure how dynamic he is offensively.

He’ll be Dynamic. Closing in on 100 pts with little help. He’d have 150 on a power house NCAA team. Sheary is a good comparison. Similar style and Sheary played for a weak UMass team
