CANADA

Ian Scott

Scott was named to Team Canada along with Canucks goaltending prospect Michael DiPietro.

This comes after Scott’s incredible start to what could be his final WHL season. In 27 games with the Prince Albert Raiders, Scott has put together a record of 23-3-1 with a save percentage of .941 and a goals against average of 1.67.

During the tournament, however, he only saw one game of action which was a 3-2 win against Switzerland. DiPietro would take over the reins and start the remainder of Canada’s games, so while there wasn’t much to report on with Scott, he will finish his WHL season and more than likely be given a shot with the AHL’s Toronto Marlies next season.

Scott is a large goalie (6’3) and is incredibly talented. He is currently 19-years-old and the Leafs picked him 110th overall, in the fourth round of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.

He is one of their best prospects and could one day take the reigns from Frederik Andersen.
