IceDogs centre Riley Patterson, with a league leading 19 points (9-10=19) over 11 games last month has been named OHL Player of the Month for December. Patterson's month featured seven different multi-point efforts and a pair of overtime game-winners. His next OT goal will establish a new IceDogs single season record with four. The 19-year-old sits fifth in OHL scoring with 45 points (21-24=45) over 33 games in this, his fourth OHL season. General Manager Frank Evola acquired Patterson this past summer from Barrie.
