Well Devin started his second OHL game, against his home town team of Saginaw. Though we lost 3-0, he had a strong showing allowing two power play goals and one even strength goal. We ended up getting a penalty right out of the gate and on the first shot by the Spirit, Brendan Saad blew a stinger past Devins right shoulder, he told us later he never even saw it. Though this did not bode well for Devin, he settled right back down and kept the scoring to one after the first period. In the second they again scored two goals; however, were kept off the board in the third. The Saginaw goalie made great saves and we were unable to capitalize on a 5 on 3, which may have changed the momentum of the game. Devin looked strong, made some great saves and played well. He got 3rd star of the game for his play, stopping 30 shots. This also brought his gaa down to a respectable 3.84 and a.896 save %, not bad for a kid who is only 3 months into his sixteenth birthday. After the game there was a meet and greet and all the fans were able to get autographs and meet the new players, he loved every minute of it. The highlight of the evening was a raffle and Devins jersey was raffled off. We bought quite a few tickets but did not win............Tate was bummed! Devin is definitely showing he belongs in this league, he is definitely living his dream...........!
