Soo Eagles to Detroit Red Wings
With starter Jimmy Howard battling the flu, Detroit Red Wings have called on 1994 birth-year goalie Jake Paterson to take his spot with the National Hockey League team.
The Red Wings are currently in a first-round, best-of-seven playoff series with Boston Bruins.
Paterson recently finished up a three-year Ontario Hockey League career with Saginaw Spirit.
As a 16-year old, Paterson backstopped Soo Eagles to the 2010-2011 Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League championship.
Jake the Snake! Soo Eagle’s Alumm!!!
