Congratulations on that, folks.

Definitely.

One of the other prospects that the Canadians were represented by who saw just a little bit of ice time but was certainly proud to be there was Latvian goaltender Mikus Vatsvanaks.

We actually have some news related to his regular play.

He was playing in Newfoundland in the QMJHL for the Newfoundland Regiment.

He was released by the regiment this week.

Excellent.

Speaking of Canadian goaltending prospects playing in the queue and moving around, Arseny Raghkov was traded from the Blainville-Bourbillon Armada to the St.

John Seadogs this week.

And he'll be... He's committed next year.

He'll be committed to the University of Massachusetts and the NCAA for next year as well.

So Vats Van Aks and Radkoff will both be playing in the Northeast next year.

For Laval, before we get to how their games went this week, due in part to their win on Friday night, that solidified their spot at the top of the North Division, and that happened within the cutoff time for Pascal Vincent to be named...

Coach for the North Division All-Stars at the upcoming AHL All-Star Classic being held in February in Rockford.

And that's always a great honor.

Rick, the coaches of the league's top teams in each division are the ones who get the honor of going and coaching at the All-Star Classic.

And great to see Pascal getting it this year.

They have continued their... Well, they got back to their winning ways on Friday night, beating Rochester 3-2 with Kapokakinen in net.

Before that, they actually dropped a game last Saturday to Utica 4-3.

Mark DelGaizo with two goals in that game.
