Sunday, March 22nd:

-Listed Forward: Fredrik Olofsson (1996-Committed to U of Nebraska-Omaha) scored a goal for the USHL's Chicago Steel  but they lost to the Youngstown Phantoms, who have now won 17 straight-a Tier 1 record. Olofsson has now scored 52 points in 50 games this year.

Monday, March 23rd:
-List Forward: Owen Sillinger (1997) scored a goal for the Regina Pat Canadians as they took Game 1 over the Battleford Stars: 5-2 in the SMHL Final. He is averaging nearly 2 points a game in the playoffs and had 64 points in 42 games in the regular season. Sillinger is the son of Mike Sillinger who holds the record for being traded to the most teams in the NHL. He was originally drafted by the Vancouver Giants in 2012 and also by the Sioux Falls Stampede of the USHL.
