Dallas Stars Prospects Update (Goal and D)

[Enforcer]

Marek Schwartz (G), St. Louis
Rating: 8.0 C

Stats:
Peoria (AHL): 11 GP, 4-4-2 2.30 GAA .900 SP
St. Louis: 1 GP, 0-0-0, 5.60 GAA, .750 SP

The best prospect on my team right now. Last season he was an AHL All-Star and has now played 3 games for the Blues. This years was just mop up of that 9-5 game with Colorado. The Blues also have Toivonen now, but Legace has that wonky knee. Schwarz could see games later this season if Legace goes down again.

Richard Bachman (G), drafted by Dallas
Rating: 6.0 D

Stats:
Colorado College (WCHA): 13 GP, 10-3-0, 1.77 GAA, .939 save percentage

The best goalie in the WCHA right now, and he's only a freshman. Bachman was named National Rookie of the Month (November) by the Hockey Commissioners Association. The WCHA is the best of the college hockey leagues in the United States, these wins are not against cupcakes. This is the team Flames goalie Curtis Mcelhinney played for.



Defense

Matt Gilroy
Rating: N/A, free agent to be

Stats:
Boston Univ (HE), 16 GP, 3-6-9

Never heard of him? You're not alone because he wasn't drafted. Heck he didn't get a scholarship, he was a walk on. Last year he had 26 points in 38 games, was first-team Hockey East, a New England All-Star, and a RBK Second Team All-American. He turned down contract offers to go back to school this year.

As you can see, he's not having a great year this year. BU is currently 4-10-1, which is a major disappointment. But he'll still get attention from NHL teams and probably get signed this summer. Maybe he should pull an Okposo and get out of there while he can

Kyle Klubertanz, drafted by Anaheim
Rating: 6.0 C

Stats:
Wisconsin (WCHA): 16 GP, 4-5-9, 22 PIM

Admittedly, he had a bad year last year. That was a tough year for Wisconsin overall, the hangover year after winning the national championship in 2006. Guys you might have heard of from that team include: Pavelski (SJ), Gilbert (EDM), Burish (CHI), Skille (CHI) and Elliott (OTT). He's been better this year, scoring more points and is an assistant captain.
