2025-26 Hurricanes Prospects and Minors Thread

Emerson is going to play that Senior year out and then, well, hopefully he has been working on a degree because his prospects of making a living playing hockey are not good.

Chicago Wolves last week:

Apr 15 Manitoba W 3-2 (Shootout) Primeau with the Win. Unger Sorum and Viktor Neuchev with the goals. Shootout shooters were Gunler (goal) Unger Sorum (no goal) and Philp (Goal)
Apr 18 Milwaukee W 3-0 Miftakhov with the 20 save shutout. Blake Biondi, Even Vierling and Viktor Neuchev with the goals.
Apr 19 Milwaukee W 5-1 Primeau with the win. Seeley, Philp, Nikita Pavlychev, Nadeau and Robidas with the goals.

Chicago finishes 36-21-15, 2nd in the Central division.

The Wolves first round playoffs series against Texas does not start until next week. The schedule looks like this:

Tue Apr 28 @ Texas
Thr Apr 30 @ Texas
Sat May 2 @Chicago
Sun May 3 @Chicago (if necessary)
Tue May 5 @Chicago (if necessary)

And yes, that the AHL's screwed up 5 game series system where the lesser seed gets the first 2 games of the series at home.
 
The Gargoyles season is mercifully over. They finished DFL in the league with 45 points in 72 games (.313 points percentage), 11 points worse than the next team and 18 points worse than the next worst Eastern Conference team. They scored the 2nd fewest goals, averaging 2.56 goals per game and allowed the most, averaging 3.83 per game.

Bryce Montgomery was recalled to the Wolves. I haven’t seen anything about the goalies being recalled.
 
Would depend on the opponent, I’d think … but Reilly is the default answer given the experience factor.
It wouldn’t shock me if Legault was recalled. The Wolves are at Texas on Tuesday and Thursday, then Chicago on Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday, the last 2 if necessary.
 
I’m sure they’ll recall somebody just in case, but you’d think they’d wait as long as possible to try and get those kids as many playoff games as they can.
