In the offseason, Pucks and Pitchforks ranked goaltender Mikhail Yegorov as the top prospect in the New Jersey Devils system. The Boston University goaltender is coming off an incredible season with the Terriers, joining them from the USHL midseason and dragging them to a Beanpot victory and to the National Championship Game in the Frozen Four.
Since then, things have gone pretty terribly. His season was not nearly what we expected. He was supposed to be in the conversation for the Hobey Baker Award. He wasn’t even a semi-finalist for the Mike Richter Award, meaning he wasn’t even a top-10 goalie in the country.
