Game Played in Eastlink Centre
General Game Notes: After a shorthanded goal late in the second period trimmed the deficit to one, it looked like the Islanders were starting to build some momentum. But a Remparts goal just thirty seconds into the third completely halted that push, and the Islanders were never able to recover.

Comments: Chen is a defense first defenseman, his skating is fine, and his stick work is great in his own end, as he is adept at creating turnovers to kill scoring chances. He can defend in multiple different ways, active stick, closing quickly using his size, and his long stride and reach makes it hard for opponents to beat him wide. With that being said, his footwork does need to improve as far as small area hockey because it is not where he is at his best. Too often tonight, small puck moves pulled him out of position and left him chasing the play. But there is no denying the impact his size brings when he is dialed in.

Comments: Conrad is not particularly dynamic in his game, his skill, skating, and puck skills are all fairly average, and his offensive game is still a real work in progress. As a result, he leans heavily on a defensive style. His biggest asset as a defender is his larger frame, which gives him a natural advantage in battles and around the net. He needs to find more consistency with the puck, but he is already a steady, reliable presence on the back end who can log meaningful minutes. With his size and physical edge, he has the tools to grow into a punishing, defense first blue liner who shuts plays down with strength and positioning.

Matthew Butler’s playing style is centered around his quick feet and agility, allowing him to outmaneuver opponents over longer distances. His ability to create space in tight areas is a notable aspect of his game, as demonstrated by his goal that showcased a clever toe drag off the rush. A key component of Butler’s play is his relentless drive to pursue pucks, which fuels his offense and enables him to effectively suppress opponents’ scoring chances.

Comments: Butler scored a nice goal just too little too late but the goal itself was impressive. He is able to stick handle the puck a million miles an hour and scan his options to find the best one to move the puck to. Before he scored, he sat at the goal line and looked off what looked like three players before he dished it to the blue line. He got the puck right back and buried home a one timer but it all started with him being able to manipulate the defense. He is smaller is stature but has the foundation with his skates where he is hard to knock off the puck. He is first to pucks and wants the puck in his hands, offensively he is a force. In his own end he has trouble being effective but this has nothing to do with effort.

Comments: Flanagan scored a nice goal capitalizing on a horrible turnover from the other team. He stripped the puck and went in on a little one on one where he cut across the middle, flipped the puck over the defenders stick, then shot it back side to beat the goalie. Quite an impressive goal showing a ton of overall skill in his game. He showed tonight that he is speedy, and he plays with a jolt, energizing his line mates and the pace of play. He has the size you want when battling in corners looking to come away with the puck. He is not the biggest but he has an extra compete level that makes him bigger than he is. His defensive play is not strong enough for him to win consistently, too focused on the puck and wanting to go the other way.

Comments: Campbell showed tonight that his greatest asset is his hockey IQ, especially since he does not have ideal size and his skating is not high end. Because of his average frame, he does not always play a truly physical style in the defensive zone, but that is never a reflection of his effort level. He is very comfortable handling the puck, and has good puck skills and he showed this by not throwing pucks away. He is fine with the pressure and at times, invites it in. He is able to see the ice while someone is defending close.

Comments: Denault played great tonight and was the biggest reason to why the Remparts were even staying in this game given his first half where he stopped three or four breakaways alone. His big size forces shooters to pick their spots but also allows him to stay square and not have to flail around to make a second save. Usually the puck pops right back out if their is a second chance because he is staying in direct line with the shooter. On his knees, his head is popping over the cross bar, Denault is a big boy, and when he is seeing the puck, he is hard to beat clean.

Comments: Loiselle is a force and one of the harder players to play against in tonight’s game. On his goal, the puck bobbled at his feet before he picked it up and went in on the rush. No one wanted to take body on him while the puck was loose in his feet and it is because of his size and the pace at which he plays at. He does a really good job at playing with size and while he can play through middle of the ice, he has the skill to hold on to pucks and play with time and space. Scored his goal shooting the puck in tight on the defender, using him as a little screen but the shot had so much zip, it did not look like he needed it.

Comments: With two assists on the night, Dube was the center of creating a ton tonight. Just from the first period alone, it looked like he could have added a couple more assists. He was the most dynamic player on the ice tonight with offense in mind, he is smaller in stature so his defense relies on being in the right position a lot of the time, but for how creative and dynamic he is offensively, he is usually possessing the puck and not worrying about his own end. With that being said, he is giong to need to figure out how to be more effective in his own end for his game to translate to the next level.
Nikita Ovcharov (LW, R, 6’2″, 196, Quebec Remparts, 02/17/2008)
Game Rating
A-
Ovcharov’s physicality allows him to be a formidable opponent on the ice. As a skater, he is capable of maintaining possession in tight spaces, which enables his playmaking skills. His size and strength make him difficult to separate from pucks, creating opportunities for himself and his teammates. Defensively, Ovcharov excels at managing his own zone, using his physicality to win battles for pucks. He also shows a willingness to be involved at the net front, adding an element of unpredictability to his play. Overall, Ovcharov’s combination of skill and physicality makes him a challenging player to contain.

Comments: Ovcharov opened the scoring with a power play goal on the back side of the net where he was able to knock one out of mid air and into the back of the net. Ovcharov plays with skill, he wants to handle the puck close to his body and with his larger size, he has the stride to escape the space if he wants too. Offensively, he is a player you want to have on the ice when momentum is on your side and this was shown by the two goals he was able to contribute tonight. One of the better parts to his game is when he is around the net because he is afforded the luxury of having the skill to beat a defender with quick stick handling or use his size to jam the net.
Nathan Quinn (C, R, 5’11”, 175, Quebec Remparts, 08/29/2007)
Game Rating
A-
Quinn’s skillset on offense is centered around his ability to drive plays and create scoring opportunities with his elite skating and puck handling skills. He excels at navigating the defensive zone with agility, making it difficult for defenders to keep up. Quinn’s intelligence and awareness allow him to read the ice well, making calculated decisions about when to pass or shoot. His opportunistic nature also enables him to capitalize on mistakes by opponents.
1 Viewing
Comments: Quinn showed that he has an elite release. Though he was given time and space on the power play to pick and get his shot off, he still released it from the tops of the circles. The way the puck popped back out of the net made it look like the goalie had zero chance to get piece of it. Quinn plays a classic skilled hockey game where he is lethal around the perimeter and sneaky when looking to enter the middle of the ice. His skating is deceptive enough to where he can shake a defender in tight forcing slower footed defenseman to respect their gaps.
Antoine Dorion (C, R, 6’1″, 198, Quebec Remparts, 11/02/2005)
Game Rating
B+
Dorion showcases a reliable wrist shot with good accuracy, leveraging his physical presence to create space for shots. He effectively utilizes his size to drive a forecheck, absorbing hits from opponents who are first on the puck. Along the boards, Dorion extends possession time by using the walls to push off and maintain control. His physicality allows him to win loose puck battles at the net front, scoring a goal that highlights his strength and competitiveness.
1 Viewing
Comments: Dorion has a set of wheels on him. When he his that extra cross over off the rush, he might at well be all alone because that is what he made a lot of defenseman feel tonight. His stride is very efficient when he has his head up and attacking north. He is able to keep speed and get lateral at the same time, a combination very hard for defenseman to read and must respect their gaps. One of the better parts on Dorions game is that he is able to recognize when defenseman do respect his speed and leave extra ice for the taking. He takes that ice and pushes the pace and will attack middle, opening up the sheet for his line mates.
Cal Uens (D, R, 5’9″, 158, Quebec Remparts, 02/11/2005)
Game Rating
B+
Uens’ playing style is centered around his ability to navigate the ice effectively, making him a valuable asset as an offensive defenseman. His agility and footwork allow him to quickly transition from defense to offense, often using his speed to create space. He excels at manipulating the defense by positioning himself in the middle of the ice, drawing opponents into traps that can lead to scoring opportunities. While Uens may struggle with maintaining possession in tight spaces, his quickness enables him to recover and regain control.
1 Viewing
Comments: Uens offense is what drives his game but defensively he is inconsistent. He showed tonight that he is still a fine skater, and is effective enough in the transition game to have somewhat of a two way game. Where he is at his best is on the man advantage. He is a force on the power play, as teams must completely adjust the structure of their penalty kill to account for what type of movement he is going to create with time and space. He is very elusive on the breakout where he can dodge checks and get up ice. He needs to find a way to be more effective in his own end and because of his size, it will probably mean a more active stick and quick jump to close on players.
