Penalty Shot: Rookies Get The Broom

ARTHUR:
Anaheim calling to the hockey world...

The Sharks rookies finished a sweep of their Ducks counterparts last night at Sharks Ice. The 5-2 victory came on the heels of a 5-0 win in a series that hadn't been close since the shootout that concluded Game 1.

The coaches insist that the junior Ducks looked good in the first and third game, and Dan Sexton attributed the losses to a Sharks group that seemed to gel from the start of the tournament.

Pielmeier performed well in the first game (though he was out-dueled by a Sharks tryout goalie), but the superstar netminder of the series appears to have been Alex Stalock, my preferred goaltender in the Sharks pool who justified my laughing out loud at his Hockey's Future profile. Following up on their performances in rookie practice, Nicolas Deschamps, Dan Sexton and Maxime Macenauer scored for the Ducks with Josh Brittain knotting two assists. Deschamps scored a second goal in Game 2, but the puck deflected off his skate as he opened his body for a one-timer, and the referees promptly waved it off.

Below you'll find links to the scoresheets, as well as a brief list of the scorers and fighters in each contest.

hes definitely a player for us to keep an eye on, he has no problem getting his nose dirty, uses that size to create space and also shows nice hands as well.

I didn't get a good look at Brittain until he went to Barrie. He's one of the size guys I was thinking of putting in at 20. He definitely had a good camp, and it looks like three guys from last year's draft class are going to get a serious look this preseason. Very interesting.
