Saarijarvi has 2 assists tonight for Toledo
Skill-wise, Saarijarvi is AHL-ready. Physically? Maybe not so much.

He's not ready defensively...he needs another year wether it's on Flint....the USHL...somewhere
Svech was great in round 1 of the Q playoffs with 10 points in 6 games, 2G+8A including 1+2 tonight to push the Eagles on to round 2. Also notable that he realistically could have had a few more goals (only shooting 8% as they were against one of the Q's best goalies, if not the best).
Good, love the passion he plays with but he's gotta be able to control it.Also only one minor penalty the whole series, great stretch for him, hoping he, Lazarev and Dubois stay hot together for a long run.
Playing as a winger right now as well.
Joe Hicketts' Victoria Royals will face-off against the Kelowna Rockets in the second round in the WHL playoffs. Chartier, Merkley and Johansen (Ryan's brother) are some notable players on Kelowna's roster. Hicketts is currently injured, but the injury is a secret it seems.
Turgeon's Hawks were eliminated in a four game sweep by Everett. Turgeon played only two games due to an injury.
In the Q, Marsh's St John Sea Dogs will face off against Svechnikov's Screaming Eagles.
I'm not as versed in the OHL, other than Saarijarvi whose team didn't make the playoffs, is someone still playing?
Doesn't sound good at all. It's a pity because I think he has real, NHL talent.Poor kid seems to be a bad fit no matter where he plays. Always seems to be drama behind the scenes.
I'm thinking this is the strongest "sell your team, Rolf" type message the OHL can send.Firebirds hit with some big penalites. Think its safe to say Saarijarvi won't be back in Flint next season.

Taking away the 3rd overall pick really seems like a move designed to try and make the team fail. Easiest way to get the team relocated is force it to be horrible and lose the fans.
Not sure that matters that much as I’ve read the 3rd pick likely wouldn’t report to Flint anyways.
