Press Release
Toronto, ON – The Canadian Hockey League today announced that New
York Rangers prospect Anthony Duclair of the Quebec Remparts is the CHL
Player of the Week for the second straight week recording 10 points in
two games including three goals and seven assists for the week ending
February 2.
Duclair exploded for a career-high seven points on Thursday night
against the Halifax Mooseheads leading the Remparts to their seventh
straight victory. He scored twice as part of the club’s six-goal second
period and added five assists in the 8-2 win and was named the game’s
first star with the best individual performance by a QMJHL player this
season. The next night Duclair picked up a goal and two assists and
received third star honours but the Remparts’ winning-streak came to an
end falling 6-4 on Friday to the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada. The
Remparts continue to hold fourth place in the QMJHL standings with 68
points.
Duclair, an 18-year-old from Montreal, QC, is playing in his third
QMJHL season with the Remparts. Selected by the Rangers in the third
round of the 2013 NHL Draft, Duclair is currently second in QMJHL
scoring with 85 points including a league-high 45 goals along with 40
assists in 49 games played.
Also considered for the award this week was past winner and New
Jersey Devils prospect Myles Bell of the Kelowna Rockets who scored six
goals and three assists for nine points in three games, while two-time
OHL Player of the Week and Phoenix Coyotes prospect Max Domi of the
London Knights scored twice with four assists for six points in three
games.
