Didn’t play at all this week. Curiously enough, eliteprospects has Fischer listed as a recall for the Stockton Heat, though the AHL says this didn’t happen on their transaction page. There’s no news about his status on the Mavericks website or through the ECHL portal. One of those things that makes you say “huh.”
Spencer Foo – RW, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 43 | 11 | 9 | 20 | 11 | 16 | 8 | 18.54 |

Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | +1 |
Just an assist for Gawdin this week (and a bonus one, stat corrected to him from weeks prior).
Josh Healey – D, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 33 | 1 | 6 | 7 | 6 | 3 | 3 | 8.45 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | +0.74 |
Also picked up a humble assist this week.

Up to date | 44 | 14 | 19 | 33 | 20 | 24 | 16 | 17.47 |
Change from last week | 2 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | +0.84 |
His most productive week as a member of Rimouski, picking up three points and a second star nod against the Quebec Remparts.
Pavel Karnaukhov – LW/C, CSKA Moscow, KHL/Zvezda, VHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date (KHL) | 27 | 3 | 4 | 7 | 7 | 6 | 6 | 17.09 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | -1.37 |

Two more KHL games for Karnaukhov this week.
Demetrious Koumontzis – LW, Arizona State University, NCAA (Independent)
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 28 | 1 | 11 | 12 | 5 | 10 | 4 | 12.67 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | +0.15 |
Picked up an assist in ASU’s sweep of struggling traditional hockey powerhouse Boston University.
Oliver Kylington – D, Stockton Heat – X
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 18 | 7 | 7 | 14 | 8 | 10 | 8 | 31 |

Safe in the NHL for now with Juuso Valimaki heading down to the AHL.
Linus Lindstrom – C/LW, BIK Karlskoga, Allsvenskan
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
SHL Up to date | 32 | 1 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 4 |
Change from last week | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | +0.91 |
SWE-1 Up to date | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Change from last week | – | – | – | – | – | – | – | – |
Skelleftea and Lindstrom finally reached a breaking point. The 20-year-old has seen dramatic cuts in his ice time (he’s played roughly 27 minutes in his last five games, though 14 of those minutes have come in just four of those games) and has finally been shipped off on loan to the Allsvenskan after being an SHL regular for the past two and a half seasons. Not a great development, but hopefully Lindstrom can find ice time and some of his offensive flair in a lower league.
Ryan Lomberg – LW, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 33 | 5 | 7 | 12 | 10 | 9 | 7 | 14.49 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 1 | +1.63 |
A pair of assists for Lomberg this week, eager not to be left out of the black aces conversation.
Andrew Mangiapane – LW/C, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 15 | 9 | 8 | 17 | 11 | 13 | 10 | 45.17 |
Change from last week | 2 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | +2.25 |
Welcome back to the AHL, Andrew Mangiapane. Hope you enjoy your brief stay.
Mitchell Mattson – C/LW, Michigan State, NCAA (Big 10)
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 13 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Played in both of MSU’s games this weekend.
Adam Ollas Mattsson – D, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 41 | 4 | 6 | 10 | 7 | 6 | 4 | 9.72 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | -0.5 |
No points for AOM this week.
Andrew Nielsen – D, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 26 | 0 | 6 | 6 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 9.2 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | -0.76 |
No points for Nielsen this week.
Mathias Emilio Pettersen – C/LW, Denver Pioneers, NCAA (NCHC)
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 23 | 6 | 16 | 22 | 10 | 14 | 6 | 34.43 |
Change from last week | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -1.57 |
Denver was taken to the cleaners by Western Michigan this weekend, only scoring two goals while allowing eight. Pettersen did pick up one of them, but that means his season totals have dipped below the point-per-game mark for the first time this season. Hopefully he can get back above that point.
Matthew Phillips – RW, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 40 | 10 | 16 | 26 | 15 | 20 | 14 | 25.9 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -0.32 |
An assist for Phillips this week.
Brett Pollock – LW/C, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 32 | 2 | 9 | 11 | 7 | 7 | 4 | 13.7 |
Change from last week | – | – | – | – | – | – | – | – |
Appears to be injured.
Martin Pospisil – C/LW, Sioux City Musketeers, USHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 30 | 12 | 28 | 40 | 21 | 32 | 15 | 30.61 |
Change from last week | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -1.37 |
Just a powerplay marker for Pospisil this week.
Rushan Rafikov – D, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, KHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 42 | 4 | 8 | 10 | 7 | 8 | 5 | 18.40 |
Change from last week | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 | +1.56 |
Picked up two powerplay points in a 7-0 destruction of Slovan Bratislava.
Milos Roman – C, Vancouver Giants, WHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 40 | 18 | 19 | 37 | 17 | 31 | 11 | 22.91 |
Change from last week | 3 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | -1.18 |
Just one assist for Roman this week.
Adam Ruzicka – C/LW, Sudbury Wolves, OHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 44 | 18 | 29 | 47 | 24 | 35 | 20 | 28.29 |
Change from last week | 3 | 3 | 2 | 5 | 3 | 4 | 2 | +1.16 |
Ruzicka’s come alive with Sudbury. While it appeared that he lost his goalscoring touch with Sarnia, he’s found it again with his new team. He has seven in nine games with the Wolves and is four away from matching his goal output with the Sting.
Kerby Rychel – F, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 42 | 19 | 16 | 35 | 21 | 24 | 14 | 34.02 |
Change from last week | 2 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | +0.3 |
Another week, two more goals for Rychel. He’s making it look easy in the AHL.
Filip Sveningsson – LW, IK Oskarshamn, Allsvenskan
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 31 | 11 | 10 | 21 | 8 | 16 | 7 | 33.11 |
Change from last week | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -0.59 |
Another goal this week for Sveningsson. He looks very comfortable in the Allsvenskan, which is great considering he’s 19 years old and a rookie pro.
Eetu Tuulola – RW, HPK, SM-Liiga
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 45 | 9 | 18 | 27 | 12 | 17 | 7 | 22.24 |
Change from last week | 3 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | +0.18 |
Tuulola is putting up some pretty good numbers heading into the final stretch of the Liiga season. With 15 games left in the year, it’ll be interesting to see how he performs after his numbers took a slight dive earlier this season.
Rinat Valiev – D, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 34 | 1 | 10 | 11 | 5 | 5 | 3 | 12.89 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | +0.45 |
Another point this week for Valiev.
Juuso Valimaki – D, Stockton Heat
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 19.93 |
Change from last week | – | – | – | – | – | – | – | – |
Valimaki’s back! After becoming a permanent departure following the 2017-18 season, he’s back in the AHL to get back in the groove of pro hockey, as he hasn’t played since November. We’ll see how long he sticks around, as it’s hard to keep a player like Valimaki down for long, but it’s very hard to replace him given the way Kylington has been playing as of late.
Dmitri Zavgorodniy – C/LW, Rimouski Oceanic, QMJHL
GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 48 | 20 | 28 | 48 | 28 | 33 | 19 | 23.29 |
Change from last week | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | -0.5 |
Zavgorodniy is still in a bit of a prolonged cold streak. Alexis Lafreniere going completely bonkers has pushed Z out of the spotlight, but hopefully he can recover his form in the final 20 games of the season. It would be a disappointing end to a promising start if he didn’t.
Jon Gillies – G, Stockton Heat
GP | TOI | SV% | |
Up to date | 27 | 1371 | 0.868 |
Change from last week | 1 | 1436 | +0.001 |
Decent performance in his one appearance of the week, stopping 27 of 30 (0.900 SV%)
Mason McDonald – G, Kansas City Mavericks
GP | TOI | SV% | |

Tyler Parsons – G, Stockton Heat
GP | TOI | SV% | |
Up to date | 12 | 631 | 0.886 |
Change from last week | 1 | 59 | -0.006 |
Followed up his stellar performances last week by getting lit up, allowing five goals on 28 shots (0.821 SV%) against Texas.
