Below The Show - Mar. 2009

By Cam Collingwood

We're keeping an eye on the feeder leagues for you... here's an update on some of the key prospects, has-beens and other notables playing in the AHL, Canadian Junior, NCAA and Europe.

Highlights so far include:

  • Hot months in the AHL for prospects like Jonathan Bernier, Jiri Tlusty and Janne Pesonen.

  • The playoffs in the CHL are starting and guys like Cody Hodgson, Logan Couture and Drayson Bowman look to pick up where they left off the regular season... on fire. 

  • In college action, BU dman Matt Gilroy is a highly sought after free agent and 20 points in his last 19 games tells you why.

  • In Europe, St. Louis prospect Lars Eller had a strong finish in the Swedish Elite League and will look to have the same impact next year that Patrik Berglund had for the Blues this year.

Stats as of March 17.
