Well the 2015-16 season has come to an end, unfortunately it did not end as anticipated or hoped. During the last month of the regular season the team faltered, allowing the London Knights to catch up to them in wins. Back to back games against London came down to the wire, with Erie winning the last game; thereby, coming in first in the league. Erie won the first and second round of the playoffs; however, had to play London for the Western Conf. title. London came to play, Erie did not and were swept in four games, a sad ending to a stellar season. This is Devin's last year as an Otter and it has been five years filled with wonderful memories. That he was with the same team for his entire OHL career says a lot, that he broke almost every record in the Erie goaltending record books speaks volumes as well. But now on to the next phase of his career, he is excited for wherever that may take him. Milestones for his Erie Otter career: Most saves with a win by a goalie - 61 of 62, Most wins 104, most minutes played by a goalie, only the 5th goalie in OHL history to have 100+ wins (he ended up fourth), the first American goalie with 100 wins and only the third goalie to accomplish it with the same team. He was the OHL goalie of the month twice, CHL player of the week and OHL goalie of the week, four times. The Otters are also the only OHL team in history with three 50 consecutive winning seasons . It was a wonderful ride and we thank the Otter's organization for believing in him.
