#34 Jake Paterson Pos: G D.O.B.: 5/3/94 From: Mississauga, Ont Height: 6'0 Weight: 178 Shoots: Left Drafted: 2012 draft 3rd rnd, 80th overall by Detroit (NHL) Acquired: Signed to an ATO with Grand Rapids (AHL) 4/10/13 Personal: Plus: Calm Demeanor... Very Athletic... Challenges shooters... A battler who inspires his teammates... Minus: Small size for NHL netminder... Unproven beyond ECHL... Organizational Comments: Chris Osgood - Wings Goaltending Consultant "Obviously, he was raw when I first saw him early in the season. As the season went on, he really improved. He's an athletic guy. What I like about him is he's athletic when he needs to be but he's got a calm demeanor to him. When he was playing, you could tell his team knew he was calm, a real competitor. They played hard for him. He's a real good teammate from what I hear on all accounts." What GRC says: Spring 2013: Paterson will get a chance to learn some lessons practicing and working out with the pros. He probably won't see any ice, and is a t least a year away from the AHL.
