  • After two full NHL seasons, Jackson LaCombe emerged as an elite two-way defenseman and is under consideration for the U.S. Olympic team.
  • A 14-goal season established Jackson LaCombe's offensive jump as he led the roster in ice time and paired effectively with veteran defenseman Radko Gudas.
