By JD Lagrange – In The System has become a very popular feature with our readers. This week, let’s see how the team’s top prospects are progressing. The far right column shows how the players are trending based on the previous week. Remember that this is in no way some expert dissection and in-depth analysis, but rather an overview at one point in time about how those young prospects are producing at their respective level.

Joshua Roy has continued to build on a strong World Junior tournament and had a fantastic week, while Riley Kidney is even hotter, averaging 2.6 points per game since joining Gatineau. Cedrick Guindon is another noticeable and he jumped up two spots this week.
Jesse Ylönen was rewarded for his hard work by being called up in Montreal.
