Week of Oct. 29, 2024

Games of Oct. 22-28, 2024

 

Forward: Lukas Saving, Northern Cyclones

Saving (‘05/Stockholm, Sweden) extended an active point streak to four games by putting up a goal and four assists for five points in his last three games. He has 10 points in 11 games overall, but those 10 points have all come in his last six games as he continues to heat up for the Cyclones. 

 

Defense: Roger Davis, Thunder Hockey Club

Davis (‘04/Exeter, N.H.), an alum of Phillips Academy in his hometown of Exeter, scored his first four junior points in the Thunder’s games of Oct. 23 and 25. Two of those four assists were on game-winners by Cooper Caby against the Worcester Railers JHC and Evan Luxford against the Seacoast Spartans. 

 

Goaltender: Lukas Fursten, South Shore Kings

At 9-1 overall, Fursten (‘05/Trebic, Slovakia) stopped 56 of 60 shots in winning his eighth and ninth in a row over the past week. He leads the NCDC in victories, and his 1.60 GAA ranks in the top five. 

 

Rookie: Loik Leduc, Northern Cyclones 

Leduc (‘06/Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Que.) scored three goals, including two game-winners, over the Cyclones’ past three games to improve to seven points in 10 games this season. Leduc is an alum of the Maine Nordiques 18UAAA program. 

Selection Process: Team coaches first nominate players, the League sends back finalists, and coaches are then able to further vote on finalists or nominate other players.
