SEASON SYNOPSIS
The Colorado Eagles had a successful 2021-22 regular season, finishing third in the Pacific Division with a 39-22-7 record for 85 points and a .625 points percentage. In the 2022 Calder Cup Playoffs, Colorado swept both Henderson (two games to none in a best-of-three) and Ontario (three games to none in a best-of-five) from the first and second rounds, respectively. The Eagles were defeated in the Pacific Division Final by Stockton, three games to one, in a best-of-five series.
Colorado certainly had its fair share of individual performances this past year, as well. Jordan Gross won the Eddie Shore Award for AHL Defenseman of the Year and earned First All-Star Team honors. Gross posted 10 goals and 55 assists for 65 total points in 61 games played. Forward Kiefer Sherwood (36G + 39A = 75 PTS in 57 GP) was named to the Second All-Star Team and finished fifth in overall league scoring. Linemate Dylan Sikura also finished tied for sixth in league scoring (33G + 40A = 73 PTS in 60 GP).
