Three Stars: November 22, 2018
1ST STAR: NICK ROBERTSON (PETERBOROUGH PETES):
2019 NHL Draft prospect Nick Robertson recorded a career-high five points, lighting the lamp for his first OHL hat-trick as the Peterborough Petes blitzed visiting Kingston 8-2. Robertson scored in the first, second and third, capping his trio with 8:54 remaining in the lopsided win. The 17-year-old from Northville, Mich. brings his season point total to nine (5-4–9) over 11 games in a campaign that has been shortened by injury. Robertson was Peterborough’s first round (16th overall) pick in the 2017 OHL Priority Selection from the Toronto Red Wings Minor Midgets. He represented the United States in this past summer’s Hlinka Gretzky Cup.

An 18-year-old defender, Wilde has 20 points (5-15–20) through 17 games this season following Thursday’s new-high three point showing. He was New York’s second round (41st overall) pick this past summer.
