With signees and draft picks spread out across two continents and more than a dozen junior leagues, keeping up with the Minnesota Wild's various prospects can be a daunting task.

From managing streaming plans and tracking down cable channels, to learning a few new languages (Puhutko suomea?), keeping tabs on the next generation can be a full-time job.

From Finland to Fargo, we're breaking down the stats and bringing you a comprehensive look at the Wild's prospect pipeline each and every week.

So, let's take a look at the week that was in the latest edition of the Young Wild Tracker.

FIRST STAR

Jordan Greenway, LW, Boston University (NCAA)

Greenway factored on all three of the Terriers' goals in a 4-2 win over Michigan on Saturday, scoring the game-winner as BU rallied after being shut out by the Wolverines in the opener. The 6-foot-5 winger assisted on Charlie McAvoy's go-ahead goal, before scoring midway through the third period. He added a secondary assist on an insurance goal with less than five minutes to play.

SECOND STAR

Dmitry Sokolov, RW, Sudbury Wolves (OHL)

Sokolov ranks 10th in the OHL with 13 goals through 16 games. He scored Sudbury's only goal in a 4-1 loss to the Niagara IceDogs, and participated in the CIBC Canada Russia Series, scoring for Team Russia in a 4-3 win over Team OHL.

THIRD STAR

Kirill Kaprizov, LW, Salavat Yulaev (KHL)

Kaprizov is in the midst of a seven-game point streak, and has 10 points over that span. He scored again on the power play in a 3-2 win over Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod on Monday and assisted on Teemu Hartikainen's game-winning goal in a 4-2 win over Ak Bars Kazan on Saturday.
