ahead
Three
future Terrier made the scoresheet in the NTDP U18s 6-2
win against Youngstown. 2014 recruit Jack Eichel scored his 19th
goal of the season on the power play, extending his point streak to 12 games. According
to the USA Hockey recap,
“Eichel swung around from the left hashmarks to collect the puck at center ice
and cut back toward DeAugustino. Dancing around three Youngstown
defenders, Eichel pulled the puck back toward his body in the left circle and
sent a puck hard along the ice that sped under DeAugustino's pads for the third
goal of the night.”

recruit J.J. Piccinich assisted on the Phantom’s first of two power play goals
and later added his own goal, assisted by 2015 recruit Maxim Letunov. Piccinich
