Cale Fleury is having success on his new team while the goalies are shutting the door in this latest Montreal Canadiens, prospect tracker.
There’s been a little more positivity surrounding the Montreal Canadiens prospects. Each one is continuing to standout in their own way, and some, in particular, are eyeing a return to action. Noah Juulsen has been out since September after fracturing his foot but has been skating with the Laval Rocket and even traveled with the team. You have to think that he’ll be making his season and professional debut soon. Additionally, 2017 2nd round pick Josh Brook still has at least another month left until he returns as he’s recovering from wrist surgery early in the year.
We’re all waiting for those two to get back at it, but for now, let’s see what the Habs prospects have been up to in this last little bit.
Tracking From November 10th – 19th
William Bitten
Bitten and the Hamilton Bulldogs have been on a tear lately winning four of their last five games. The 19-year-old had his best night offensively on Saturday against the Ottawa 67’s. Bitten scored 15 seconds into the game after his teammate stole the puck behind the net and got it to him at the right faceoff circle. He was also involved in the next two goals for the Bulldogs finishing the night with three points in total.
The CHL also defeated Russia for the third time in a row. Bitten was a part of the victory as his Team OHL won against Russia last Monday.
Season Total: 4 goals 15 assists
Michael Pezzetta
The Wolves captain put up a goal and two assists in this latest six-game stretch. Pezzetta was close to receiving league discipline after a big hit landed on Alexey Lipanov. He got a five minute major and a games misconduct for it, but a suspension may have been a possibility considering he’s gotten supplementary discipline from the OHL before.
Season Total: 11 goals 12 assists
