New format this week, focusing more on the Florida Panthers prospects than older veterans in the AHL and overseas, as well as where they rank on my list of the top 20 FLA prospects heading into 2011-12. A poll is included.

Only one game for the Rampage this week, a 5-0 loss to the Peoria Rivermen, AHL affiliate of the St. Louis Blues. Former NHL 50-goal scorer Jonathan Cheechoo scored twice and was named the game's third star, as the Rivermen's powerplay went 4-for-6. Brian Foster was in net for the entire game, making 23 saves. The Rampage are currently 3-2-0 and tied with the Texas Stars for last place in the West Division.

The Cyclones had a two game weekend, falling to the Reading Royals, who rallied in the third with two goals. Adam Comrie scored a powerplay goal in the second period. The Cyclones ended the weekend with their first win, shutting out the Trenton Titans, 3-0. Adam Comrie scored another goal and Garrett Wilson scored an empty netter. The Cincinnati Cyclones are 1-2-0 and are tied with the Toledo Walleye for last place (four team division) in the North division.

The Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees season began with 2-1 and 5-1 losses to the Missouri Mavericks. On Wednesday, the Killer Bees completed their first trade of the season, trading for Aaron Boogaard from the Laredo Bucks in exchange for future considerations.

Ok so obviously besides Hubs going at a 2 PPG rate… MCFARLAND!!! I’m so happy that this guy is putting it together this season. 10 goals and 18 points in 14 GP? That’s freaking awesome. THIS was the kind of production that everyone has been waiting for from this kid ever since he was drafted into Juniors. Can’t wait to see the points and goals he puts up this season with consistency.

And btw..

Shirokov is putting up better numbers than Ovechkin did in the KHL… Yes Ovechkin put up 27 points in 37 games as a 19 year old… Shirokov is 25… but still. He’s putting up more than a point per game. Kid’s real.

but still.. really?

not a fair comparison plus mentioning Shirokov in the same breath as Ovie is border line ridiculous. Shirokov isn’t now and will never be half the player Ovechkin is. Decent to good prospect but at 25 he’s not a kid, he’s a vet. Numbers produced in the KHL are not easily translated into NHL production. The KHL is a nice little league but more on par with the AHL than the NHL. Shirokov is in the KHL for a reason.

Rumor is Yaroslav Kosov will be playing for Team Russia in the Subway Series.

Hope that’s the case; haven’t seen much of what he can do.

Whoever is playing for Rögle BK, you forgot his name in the list.

And just curious, do you have a list of Panther Prospects in numerical order, as you see them, posted somewhere? I’m too lazy to sort all of that out. =)

You mean Rasmus Bengtsson? He’s listed

by Alexander Calloway on Oct 28, 2011 6:41 PM EDT up reply actions

MrOmnipotent,

Rasmus Bengtsson has played in two different leagues for Rogle BK this season, both of those lines of stats pertain to him there is not a name missing. He has played 6 games for the Rogle junior team and 7 games for the Rogle pro team.
