Gidlof nice shut out win for Djurgarden in their playoff game 33 saves
Muskegon sweeps Youngstown in USHL playoffs. Veilleux off to Semifinals
Really got lucky with Eiserman at 20 overall last year. A 25 goal freshman season and a goal in the championship game (and the semis), I don’t think anyone would guess he would dominate college hockey so early and easily. He’s a sniper pure and simple. Seems to be able to do so no matter what league.

I suspect that is the type results we will get from Ritchie. He is a solid above average two-way second line center. The Islanders need that short term and long term
Gidlof another nice win. 4-1 Djurgarden gets promotion
Ritchie, Nurmi in action tonight in OHL semis

It was so weird.
He got loaned to the team in the middle of the finals. Their goaltending was actually fine.
But they plugged him in with a 2-1 series lead and all he did is go 2-0 with a 0.53 GAA & .980 save percentage to finish things off.
Wild stuff!
Yes, Eiserman at 20 was fortunate.
His stats were fantastic this year. I wouldn't say "dominate". He played with some really good college hockey players and his ability to release pucks so quickly, even if they aren't sent to him perfectly, is far above average and made him incredibly dangerous.
But as a pure freshman with a slighter build, there was only so much he could do as an overall player. He got used and abused along the way.
He's a terrier though. Going to be interesting to see what he becomes if and when he gets his man strength.
I don't see him having the puck-carrying skills of a Caufield though. I had hoped he'd be that kind of puck wizard.
SIDENOTE:
Chicago pick Sascha Boisvert, a player many here wanted last summer, will transfer to BU.
Ritchie hits an ENG

Results are promising, but he may end up fizzling out at Cornell it's still too early to tell IMO.

That’s promising. We need a guy that can actually get the puck into the empty net.
Agree, it’s just a nice change up to see our late round prospects actually putting up numbers as opposed to the usual out of hockey altogether or 0 impact on their teams
Muskegon is a good team in the USHL this year and Veilleux huge reason why. Hopefully he continues to marinade and improve at the NCAA level
Would be nice for us to get a late round steal!
He's where he should be in his development for a DY+1 player but it's nothing extraordinary. Nice to see him chipping in for a final 4 USHL team.
Like @seafoam writes, it's far too early to tell.
The switch from Harvard to Cornell, which was real good this past winter, was an intersting one. I suspect he'll be given plenty of opportunity to take on a strong two-way role as they certainly must have targeted him in order to get him to break his previous commitment.
