Goaltender: Simon Eriksson (Rochester Ice Hawks)

Simon Eriksson, who hails from Tumba, Sweden, notched back-to-back shutouts in his final two starts of the month, beating Hudson 5-0 and then the Minnesota Owls 3-0 to cap a 30-day span in which his only setback came in a 29-save, 2-1 loss at Granite City Nov. 6.

“His month was no different than any other month we’ve had with Simon, and what I mean by that is he is just solid all the time,” said Rochester head coach Nick Fatis. “He does what you want form any goaltender, which is give you a chance to win when he puts on the pads. He’s done that consistently.”
