Catching The Torch: Jack Gorniak’s adjustment, and Nick Suzuki’s penalty-kill prowess

Each week we take an in-depth look at young members of the organization while providing an overview of Habs prospects playing at the Junior (OHL, QMJHL, WHL) and collegiate (USHL, NCAA) level.

Jack Gorniak, #11, LW, University of Wisconsin

Jack Gorniak plays in Wisconsin’s middle-six this season. Despite getting more than a few scoring chances since the first game of season for the Badgers when he recorded his lone assist, he has had trouble finding the back of the net.

That is unlike anything Gorniak has known until now. He recorded 28 goals last season with West Salem High, doing it in only 24 games, and he had 30 in even fewer contests the previous year.
