System Check: Adam Novotný's Hat Trick Leads a Big Week

Adam Novotný had the best week of any Canucks prospect, scoring 3 goals in one game on his way to 7 points in 3 games. Here is every prospect who played between Oct 12 and Oct 18.

---

OHL

Adam Novotný (Peterborough) led all prospects with 3 goals and 4 assists in 3 games. He had two assists in one game, then a five-point night with the hat trick. He now has 7 goals and 16 points in 10 games.

Lucian Bernat (Owen Sound) played 3 games and added 3 assists. He has 5 points on the season but is a -6.

Brooks Rogowski (Oshawa) played 3 games without a point. He still has 7 assists in 10 games, but no goals yet.

NCAA

Anthony Romani (Michigan State) played one game and had a goal and two assists. He has 4 goals and 7 points in 3 games this season.

Connor Davis (North Dakota) played 2 games with a goal and two assists. That is 3 points in 3 games on the year.

Wilson Björck (Colorado College) played 2 games and had an assist. He has 2 points in 4 games.

Daimon Gardner (Minnesota State) played 3 games without a point and is still looking for his first in 4 games this season.

Five Abbotsford skaters played twice this week.

GOALTENDING

Alexei Medvedev (London, OHL) won both of his starts. He is 3-1-1 with a .919 save percentage and a 2.64 GAA.

Ty Young (Abbotsford, AHL) won his start and is 1-1-0 with a .897 save percentage and a 3.40 GAA.

Aku Koskenvuo (Kalamazoo, ECHL) took an overtime loss in his only appearance, with a .889 save percentage.

Dmitri Ivchenko (Omskie Yastreby, MHL) lost his start and is 3-4-0 with a .872 save percentage and a 3.50 GAA.

No games were logged this week for Kirill Kudryavtsev, Anri Ravinskis or Gabriel Chiarot (Abbotsford), Kieren Dervin (Michigan) or Matthew Perkins (Northeastern).

WRAPPING UP

That is a strong first look at the pipeline. Novotný is on a tear in Peterborough, Romani and Davis are producing in the NCAA, and Abbotsford has five skaters putting up points. Medvedev is winning in London. Plenty of the group is still looking for a first point, and that is what makes this worth tracking.

We will check back in on all of them every Monday. See you next week for another System Check.
