Florida Panthers‘ 4th round pick in the 2016 draft (#114 overall) rookie defenseman Riley Stillman(70) scores a 1st NHL recall on an emergency basis and skates 19 shifts for 11:22 of total ice time with 1 shot, 5 hits, 2 penalty minutes and 1 giveaway in a 4-3 shootout loss.
The 6’1″ 196 lbs. d-man has 3 goals and 8 assists with a +5 rating for affiliate Springfield Thunderbirds in 46 AHL games and always plays a hard-hitting, aggressive style.
He was always a decent scorer through three years of juniors and took it to another level after a trade sent him to Hamilton Bulldogs, where he helped them win the 2018 OHL Championship scoring 5 goals and 9 assists in 21 games with a +19 rating.
The 20-year old is in the first year of his 3-year entry level deal and looks to be making his move to occupy a spot on the big league roster sooner than later.
