No. 13 Joshua Ravensbergen: Sharks' future in net?

The first thing you notice about Ravensbergen is his size. At 6'5", he's got that big modern goalie frame that eats up a ton of the net. That alone makes shooters think twice, but it's not just the size; he actually uses it well. He's not the type to flail around or make crazy desperation saves all the time. Instead, he stays pretty composed, relies on his positioning and just looks calm even when the play is breaking down in front of him.

No. 23 Mattias Havelid: An important year for development

The problems continued this past season, when Havelid floundered with Linköping. In 19 games, he had just one point, and his development stagnated. Midway through the season, he was loaned to Djurgårdens IF in the second tier, and things seemed to come together for the defenseman. Havelid was placed on a team that included players like Victor Eklund and Anton Frondell. Combined, Djurgårdens IF won the league and was promoted back into the SHL. For Havelid, he scored 14 points in 18 games and found his confidence.

Top Nationals pitching prospect continues recent stretch of dominance

On the bright side, the Nationals' bullpen turned in another phenomenal performance, putting up a load of zeroes after start Jake Irvin failed to make it through the third inning. Irvin has seen the wheels completely fall off in the second half of this season, as he now owns a 5.40 ERA and 1.43 WHIP, and it's pretty hard to argue that him and fellow struggling starter Mitchell Parker give this team any sort of chance to win every fifth day.
