Linus Ullmark stopped 44 of 45 shots sent his way Sunday as Modo J20 earned a 2-1 overtime win over Skelleftea J20.

The 6’3″ Ullmark came up big throughout, including many big saves as Gustav Possler (’13) served a five-minute major for a check to the head late in the game. MODO opens the SuperElit regular season schedule Saturday when they hosy Brynas.

In the OHL, Dan Catenacci’s Owen Sound Attack throttled Erie 9-4 in their second-to-last preseason contest. The Attack will close out their exhibition schedule Tuesday with a game against Mississauga. Catenacci sustained an undisclosed injury and did not play.

Alex Lepkowski’s Barrie Colts defeated Kitchener, 5-2. The Colts close out the preseason Friday with a rematch against the Rangers.

    It is unclear at this time but I'm certain they will find an affiliate to use. I still like the Elmira idea to at least get that third minor league goalie some pucks. Will be a shared affiliation regardless of who they end up with (which is perfectly ok).
