Week of Sept. 26, 2024 

 

Games of Sept. 17-23, 2024

 

New England Division

Forward: Max Larkin, Boston Jr. Rangers

Larkin (‘05/Eastford, Conn.) started his junior career with four assists in his first two games, and currently stands as the team’s scoring leader. 

 

Defense: Olli Nyfors, Boston Jr. Rangers

Nyfors (‘05/Lausanne, Switzerland) put up a goal and two assists for three points. He scored a goal in the opening game on Sept. 19, and then added two more assists. He is second in Jr. Rangers scoring after Larkin. 

 

Goaltender: Cameron Prodin, Northern Cyclones

Third-year Cyclone Prodin (‘04/Dearborn, Mich.) kicked off the season with a 27-save shutout against the Utica Jr. Comets on Sept. 20. Outside the scope of this week’s awards, he also is in a good position to contend for a repeat next week after earning a 15-save shutout on Sept. 25, to go 2-0 with no goals against as of yet. 

 

Canada Division 

Forward: Samuel Bunel, Hawkesbury Knights

Junior rookie Bunel (‘05/Montreal, Que.) put up four goals and one assist, including the Knights’ second hat trick of the season on Sept. 22. He has eight points through five games. 

 

Defense: Arthur Sevigny, Universel Sherbrooke

Sevigny (‘07/Blainville, Que.), who returns to the Premier this season, put up a goal and added three assists for four points as Sherbrooke won twice last weekend and gave up just two goals. 

 

Goaltender: Carlo Giordani, Universel Sherbrooke 

Giordani (‘06/Milano, Italy) came from a long career with Bishop’s College to Sherbrooke and had an outstanding performance for his junior debut, stopping 43 of 44 shots from the Montreal Black Vees for the “W.”

 

Atlantic Division

Peter Labos, P.A.L. Jr. Islanders 

Labos (‘04/Plainview, Ill.) was monstrous over three days, putting up 11 points in three games (4-7-11) and he’s pulled up to  fourth overall in USPHL scoring, with 11 points over four total games. P.A.L. stands at 3-1-0-0. 

 

Brandon Jung, Elmira Impact

Jung (‘04/Ann Arbor, Mich.) posted two assists in each of his first three games this season, between Sept. 20-22. Elmira stands at 2-1-0-0 out of the gate. 

 

Goaltender: Noah Pfab, Hershey Cubs

Pfab (‘07/Nurnberg, Germany) was playing in his first North American game on Sunday when he made his outstanding debut. He may not have gotten the win, but he was heroic in stopping 50 of 52 shots for a .962 save percentage in an eventual 3-1 loss to P.A.L.
