| Carter Yakemchuk | Note | Awkward to on defense against a Lindstrom rush, but he gets away with it and sweeps the puck to the boards. | Brian Fogarty | Calgary vs Medicine Hat (WHL) | 12/15/2023 | 5/23/2024 | 10310 |

| Carter Yakemchuk | Note | A turnover in the neutral zone and the puck finds his stick. He leads a two-on-one rush from the left side, holds on his way in looking pass, then shoots--saved--but he follows his shot and buries the rebound. | Brian Fogarty | Calgary vs Medicine Hat (WHL) | 12/15/2023 | 5/23/2024 | 10310 |

| Carter Yakemchuk | Note | I'm not a fan of his defensive positioning. He's getting out too high, too often. | Brian Fogarty | Calgary vs Medicine Hat (WHL) | 12/15/2023 | 5/23/2024 | 10310 |
| Carter Yakemchuk | Note | Risky with his feet and with his passing | Brian Fogarty | Calgary vs Medicine Hat (WHL) | 12/15/2023 | 5/23/2024 | 10310 |
| Carter Yakemchuk | Summary | He is a risk-and-reward defender, no question. He sees so much, but his passing at times couldn't translate the play he saw into the play on the ice. Very good skater, good size, lots of physicality, but he made some bad choices and needs work on his overall game awareness, I think. | Brian Fogarty | Calgary vs Medicine Hat (WHL) | 12/15/2023 | 5/23/2024 | 10310 |
