Cole Sillinger Has Big Night With Three Points
3 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets center Cole Sillinger collected three points as the team beat Colorado 5-4 in overtime Wednesday night. The 18-year-old scored twice at the start of the third period and recorded an assist on Jake Bean's game-winner 1:12 into the extra frame. Sillinger was plus-one for the game with five shots, one block and one hit. The Columbus-born centerman became the third 18-year-old in franchise history to register a three-point performance. The first-round pick had only two points for his rookie campaign before Wednesday's win. Sillinger is still learning his trade but it looks like he's going to be a very good player in the league. He can terrorize the Avalanche again on Saturday.
