Kyle-Criscuolo

Buffalo Sabres‘ undrafted 2nd year center Kyle Criscuolo(51) scored himself a nice 2-year entry level contract after a successful rookie season on a minor league deal with Grand Rapids Griffins, where in a full slate of 76 AHL games he posted 17 goals and 24 assists with a +15 rating, then added another 9 points en route to the 2017 Calder Cup Championship.

The former two-time captain at Harvard University consistently put up outstanding numbers in college hockey.

After getting off to a quick start as an assistant captain with affiliate Rochester Americans, he claimed a first recall one month into the new calendar for his first NHL appearances and skated in 8 games with no points in limited minutes.

The small 5’8″ 170 lbs. forward plays a hard skating style and fights for open space to gain scoring opportunities.

Interestingly enough the 25-year old will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of his new deal and could gain more notice if he’s able to keep up his level of play.
