Prospect Info: Where They Will Play Season '20-'21

[montreal]

AVSLÖJAR: Rögle vill ersätta Lavoie med ny topptalang – här är namnet man jagar

talks about it, it's in Swedish so you need google translate. I hope he does it as it would be great for him as the bigger ice would have him work on his skating more and having our 2 best prospects face each other would be fun to watch.

 

[McGees]

I remember that he scored a lot of goals.

Looks like he might be heading to SHL

 

[Adam Michaels]

Also just realized that Eric Gelinas plays for Rogle.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Going to Europe would probably be great for his development this season, no complaints from me on that front.

 

[Trembz]

Looks like he might be heading to SHL

Should we wait for him to be signed first before heading over ? If so, should be happening any moment now.

I’d prefer AHL due to rink size and play style myself

 

[Odie Cleghorn]

Remember how flawed Cammalleri was in the playoffs? I agree we will get pushed around if we have all small players, but we need a little sniper who can find the open ice and has a wicked shot like Caufield too.

Agreed. If Caufield can be as effective as Cammalleri in the playoffs he will be very valuable. Replace some of the other smaller players like Byron.

Has college hockey shutdown this year?

I don’t really like the AHL for younger top prospects because they become a huge target for goons/career ahlers. Also a lot of of uncertainty as to whether or not the AHL season even takes place at this point

SHL is playing right now. Plus, the larger rink will probably help his skating and it's a good league to learn 2 way hockey. He can play AHL next year if need be.

It's a great move.

It's a great move.

Also keeps him away from potentially being yo-yoed when the team fails to score goals this season.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

I hope he goes

If the AHL was starting at a regular start date, yes. But the plan is for the AHL to start in December, and that is if it does and isn't pushed back even more.

However, European leagues, some have already started while others are a week or two away from starting. So Caufield in Europe will have him playing sooner. And particularly in the SHL, whose regular season started yesterday. And it's one of the top leagues in the world, so the competition will be better, too.

Also, how cool would it be to see Caufield vs. Norlinder.

Has college hockey shutdown this year?

no, they are looking to start around Nov 20th but we should hear an update in the coming weeks.

 

[Tyson]

Caufield would greatly benefit from playing on a larger ice surface.

 

[montreal]

not Hab prospect related but the USHL will be without 2 teams due to rink conditions,

Cedar Rapids RoughRiders and Madison Capitols Will Not Participate In 2020-21 USHL Season USHL

The USHL is preparing a 14-team regular season schedule to be released soon. The regular season is scheduled to begin on Friday, November 6.

 

[montreal]

So in 10-11 days we will have the Q, Liiga and Allsvenskan starting up, a month after that champions league and the USHL with maybe the NCAA.

 

[Scintillating10]

Been talk Caufield going to play for Rogle. Is this true?

 

[Hfbsux]

Been talk Caufield going to play for Rogle. Is this true?

The rumor is true, but nothing confirmed yet.

 

[Scintillating10]

The rumor is true, but nothing confirmed yet.

For Caufield to be considering it he must think be no NCAA season

 

[Adam Michaels]

The LA Kings loan 5 of their prospects to Berlin of the DEL.

Alex Turcotte, Tyler Madden, Aidan Dudas, Thomas, and goalie Jacob Ingham are all heading to Germany on loan.



They have also loaned two other prospects (Carl Grundstrom & Samuel Fagemo) to Allsvenskan in Sweden. Fagemo is on the same team as Vejdemo.

 

[Adam Michaels]

It makes sense Kings sent a handful of prospects there at once:

 

[Adam Michaels]

For Caufield to be considering it he must think be no NCAA season

Not exactly. The NCAA hasn't made any decision yet. Each conference is looking at their own situations. Some conferences might start sooner than others. Wisconsin is in the Big-10, and the latest was that they're looking at a November start date.

Caufield going to Sweden is more about playing sooner.

The Big-10 start date is not official and it might end up being pushed back even more. The SHL season has already started. So that is more of a guarantee that he will play.

 

[Adam Michaels]

We finally have a loan to the KHL which will permit the player to return once the NHL season begins:



Curious if Habs will do this with Khisamutdinov and if Neftehimik would agree to let him return once the season starts.

Demchenko's rights were traded to Avangard Omsk the other day. So that is also another curiosity I have if he will be loaned and be allowed to return.

I like it from the Kings perspective, let their young players develop together. But I don't like it from a DEL perspective - some vets will lose their jobs because ownership has sided with their NA entity. The DEL isn't meant to be a developmental league.
