Midweek Bruins Prospect Report

by sarahconnors on Oct 19, 2011 12:17 PM EDT in Prospect Reports

Happy Hump day, everyone. You know what that means - time for another edition of the Bruins Midweek Prospect report. After the jump, check out how the Baby B's are doing, along with how our OHL prospects are tearing up the league...

P-Bruins readings

The P-Bruins dropped a really, really ugly one at home on Friday night, losing to division rival Manchester 7-1.
With Michael Hutchinson still broken, free-agent goaltender Karel St-Laurent got the callup this weekend...and actually had to play. He looked pretty good in his professional debut.
The P-Bruins bounced back to grab two wins on Saturday and Sunday, including a shootout win against Portland on Sunday.

Who's Hot

Josh Hennessy, one of the few bright spots for the P-Bruins, has scored 2 goals and 1 assist in 3 games played. Both goals were power play goals.
Dougie Hamilton, who continues to score at a great pace, has 17 points through 9 games played.
Jared Knight, who has clearly worked on his defensive game, is a +8 with 9 points through 8 games played.

Who's Not

Anton Khudobin, who allowed 5 goals before being pulled on Friday night. He needs to find the gear he was in last year, the reason the Bruins gave up Jeff Penner for his stellar goaltending.
Ryan Spooner, with only 4 points and a -6 rating through 9 games played.

Injury Report

Nathan McIver (Providence, AHL) - lower body (4+ weeks)
Michael Hutchinson (Providence, AHL) - head (DTD)

Is Dougie cleaning up mostly on the power play? It seems odd that he can be on the ice for almost 2 goals a game and still be an even plus / minus.

I don’t care either way – with the Bruins power play, it’d be great to have someone who can do well there, it just seems really odd for someone to have 17 points in 9 games and not be in positive plus / minus territory.

PPG are listed in the table; he has four of them, so yes. :D

Thanks – should have noticed that column. I honestly saw so many 0’s there (early in the season) that I didn’t think it was anything worth looking up.

He certainly is.

Kick his ass, Seabass!

considering that Khudobin’s GAA/sv% for providence last year was 2.40/.920…..yes.

also last year they were ALSO horrible so he doesn’t really have that excuse this year, either.

he came over at trade deadline and proceeded to play almost every game. So not THAT late.

Khudobin’s always been pretty streaky. Very good when he wants to be but when he shits the bed he really bombs.

I see Hamel is doing pretty much nothing as always.

I really wish they’d find a way for him to be out of the organization, if only for my own sanity. Because every time I see his name, I’m reminded of Couture, McDonagh, Sutter, and Shattenkirk.

I wish Hamilton could play in Providence. He’s obviously beyond the OHL level but needs some stiffer competition before he is NHL ready. Silly OHL regulations.
