Jake Sanderson is off to a fast start and appears poised for a breakout. Sanderson scored a power-play goal while taking four shots, giving him goals in back-to-back games and six points over his last four games. Sanderson has also taken over the top power play from Thomas Chabot. Sanderson is also being used on [...]
Welcome back to The Journey, where we track the development of prospects as they excel in junior, make the NHL, and push towards stardom.

What a difference a week makes. In what has been quite an unpredictable start to the new NHL campaign, we’ve already witnessed a number of peculiar trends and performances from a myriad of different teams and players. Hands in the air if you predicted the Philadelphia Flyers would be sitting in first place in a [...]

Las Vegas and Colorado are already being crowned out west, and Boston and Philadelphia (?) lead the Eastern divisions.

I would like to touch on a couple housekeeping items before diving in this week. First are apologies [...]
