1/1 Recap: Southy heading west?

Rumors out of the QMJHL are suggesting that Jordon Southorn has played his last game for the PEI Rocket, as a deal has reportedly been made that will send the 19-year old defenseman and another player (Samson Mahbod perhaps) to the Quebec Remparts. Nothing is official yet, but it could be done as soon as Saturday. A trade to a contender could be the jumpstart the Southorn needs to earn an NHL contract from the Sabres. Stay tuned for more details.

In Friday night OHL action, Zack Kassian finished -1 as Peterborough was shut down by Kingston, 3-0.

Justin Jokinen registered an assist as Minnesota State handled RIT, 6-1.

In the USHL, Mark Adams was +2 with an assist as Chicago defated Lincoln, 5-4 in a shootout.
