  • For the first time in a very long time, there’s a new Montreal Canadiens prospect atop the power rankings.

Several other prospects climbed the list, while a handful of players dropped in this edition of the Habs prospect power rankings.  [Canadiens Prospect Power Rankings: Fowler Reigns Supreme]
  • Prospect Lane Hutson took the time to discuss his Boston University teammate, Macklin Celebrini. The two form a deadly duo in the NCAA but will be fighting under different flags at the 2024 World Junior Championship.  [Lane Hutson Discusses Macklin Celebrini]
  • Jake Evans was missing from practice, which led to a shakeup in the lines. In an encouraging change, forward Jesse Ylonen practiced on the second line with Sean Monahan and Josh Anderson.

  • Tickets are now on sale for the Montreal PWHL chapter’s home games.

  • Prospect Florian Xhekaj thought he had scored the teddy-bear toss-clinching goal last night, but upon further review it was called off, leading to an awkward situation in Brantford.

  • The Philadelphia Flyers survived the Washington Capitals in the shootout, but they couldn’t have done it without some good old-fashioned practice.

  • Timo Meier started Wednesday’s game on a line with Jack Hughes and Tyler Toffoli. However, head coach Lindy Ruff switched things up, swapping Jesper Bratt and Meier. When asked if he’s struggling to find Meier’s place in the lineup, he said no. Instead, he was just in search of a different look. [New Jersey Devils]
