Three Stars: February 18, 2019

1ST STAR: SASHA CHMELEVSKI (OTTAWA 67’s):
San Jose Sharks prospect Sasha Chmelevski had an afternoon to remember, scoring a career high five goals as the Ottawa 67’s doubled-up visiting North Bay 6-3. Chmelevski increased his season total to 29 goals, registering nine shots on goal while going 12-for-17 in the faceoff circle. The 19-year-old from Northville, Mich. has 11 goals in the month of February and a total of 65 points (29-36–65) over 46 games this season. The five-goal effort is one shy of a 67’s franchise record and the first since Tyler Toffoli last accomplished the feat in December 2010. Chmelevski was San Jose’s sixth round pick in 2017.
