Hello Toronto Maple Leafs prospect fans!

It was a pretty meh week overall points wise for these guys, and a lot of L’s got on the board. Our biggest performer was Ryan McGregor and the powerhouse Sarnia Sting (it’s still really weird to type that), he put up three points this week and the Sting won all three of their games 20-6. It’s good news for the chemical capital this season!

Speaking of good news, the Prince Albert Raiders got some amazing news when Ian Scott returned to the crease last Saturday after missing time due to an injury he suffered in his first game back from Leafs camp. Scott made 30 saves as the Raiders defeated the Saskatoon Blades in overtime.

Let’s jump into it.

Vesey and the Black Bears are holding steady at .500 hockey, but a player of Vesey’s age getting scratched isn’t a good sign.
