TORONTO, ON — This week in review (October 22-28) there is a familiar name at the top of the three stars list.
Your comments are most welcome. If you have a question about any of the prospects email me, and perhaps it will be answered in the weekly All Habs mailbag feature that appears on these pages on Thursdays.
The Three Stars
1. LW Tim Bozon
2. C Alex Galchenyuk
With a limited amount of offensive talent on Sarnia this season, it is often falling to Alex Galchenyuk to be their point man. Galchenyuk began his campaign on Thursday, scoring two goals and an assist, including the game-winner on a penalty shot to give Sarnia a 5-2 victory over Windsor. Galchenyuk would go pointless on Saturday against Erie in another 5-2 victory for Sarnia, he still showed he had a solid reserve for Sunday. Facing off against Brampton, Galchenyuk marked a goal and two assists in a 4-1 victory over Brampton. Galchenyuk is currently 7th in league scoring in the OHL. Galchenyuk was drafted in the 1st round, 3rd overall in the 2012 NHL Draft.
3. RW Sebastian Collberg
While Collberg was sentenced to essentially ride the bench in the Elitserien this season, he’s found new life after being transferred to the secondary professional league in Sweden, the Allsvenskan. In his first game with Örebro HK, Collberg scored his first professional goal in a 4-3 loss to the Malmö Redhawks. Collberg would go pointless in a 5-0 victory for Örebro over Karlskrona, but would notch his 2nd goal in the following game, in a 5-4 victory over Asplöven. Collberg was drafted in the 2nd round, 33rd overall in the 2012 NHL Draft.
On The Radar: 
– C Michaël Bournival and RW Brendan Gallagher both scored their first professional goal this week and their first pro assist.
– LW Blake Geoffrion scored a goal and two assists.
– RW Danny Kristo scored four assists.
– C Brady Vail scored four assists.
Question Marks:
– RW Alexander Avtsin continues to be a healthy scratch in Hamilton.
– LW Charles Hudon is out indefinitely with a concussion.
