oh yea- cant forget to mention.... his dad is the Newfoundland GM and Head Coach family affair in NL

Interesting. As the season progressed for Baie Comeau, I figured he would have developed better in a lower league. Hopefully, he is indeed able to play at the level of the QMJHL.

It also means that he won 't play with Gosselin if Gosselin plays for BC later in the year. (See next post. )

Friday’s game(s)

Evaschesen https://chl.ca/whl/gamecentre/1022532/

I will post the summary(ies) whenever.

 

[Engineers]

Looking at the recruit list I would think that we need at least 2-3 more forwards for next year. I wonder if lang will use the portal for this or add more major junior players. I think lang mentioned he’s expecting some serious talent to hit the portal this year with the addition of major junior players. Not enough spots for the talent available. We have some nice players to build around but we need significantly more skill in the top 6 group. Can’t wait to see what lang will do.

 

[Ralph Baer]

On Friday, the Kamloops Blazers defeated the Kelowna Rockets 3-2 (2-1) in a shootout. Josh Evaschesen had a goal (PPG), the winning shootout goal, and a roughing penalty. 4 SOGs. https://chl.ca/whl/gamecentre/1022532/

Evaschesen's line is now 36-16-22-38-29.
