A few notes from Elite Prospects:
-Juraj Slafkovsky, the 17 year-old, 6'4" LW is turning heads this year, first dominating the Finnish U20 Liiga (18pts in 11 games), and now has 5 goals in 5 games at the Olympics, to go with a +5 rating. Not only is he tied for the tourney's goal-scoring lead with Lucas Wallmark (and 5th in points), he is turning heads with his playmaking abilities and off-puck play. His draft stock continues to rise.
-After being knocked for not scoring more in the beginning of the season, Shane Wright has scored 17 points in his last 10 games.
