Vancouver Rookie Watch 2

[Girts 1,053]

The Vancouver Wolves fab 5 rookies are putting up strong seasons as they try to push their team into the playoffs during the second half. Ninefingers, Martin, Gavilrovs, Von Carstein and DB IV are contributing well as their pro game continues to take shape this season. 

 

Riley Martin: The slick winger has stayed hot since our last check in with 26 points and 14 goals in 38 games. His game is rounding into form and opponents need to take notice of him every time he steps on the ice. 

 

Vlad Von Carstein: The offensive Dman continues to put up points at a great pace now with 22 in 38 games! His two-way game is developing well also with 82 blocks and 44 hits on the year. The young star can do it all out there. 

 

Logan Ninefingers: The big power winger has been on a torrid pace the last vaulting himself to 27 points in 38 games including 12 goals and 93 hits. Rumor has it he may be having a finger surgically re-attached so watch out in the second half! 

 

Guntis Gavilrovs: The behemoth defender continues to destroy people with 128 hits in 38 games but we speculate it's even more than that and sths couldn't keep up. He has 91 blocks and much like his junior career is posting strong offense from the blue line with 5 goals and 17 points so far! After recent rumors it will probably be a while until someone dares drop the gloves with Gavilrovs. 

 

DB IV: He's finding his way out there against top competition and has shown a solid defensive game when called upon with 41 blocks, 28 hits in about 15 minutes a game. He's even added some points too! Continued development should see him settle into a nice role in the pros. 

 

Strong seasons so far for all these guys in their respective positions and roles. If this group can keep up the current pace and even improve on it, we don't see why the Wolves can't get into the post season!
