YOUNGSTOWN PHANTOMS:  After the Under-18 squad took both games against the Phantoms last weekend, Youngstown returns to USA Hockey Arena for Round 3 in the final game before the NTDP's first international break of the campaign.

Over the last pair of matchups, the U18s came from behind to win 5-2 on Thursday afternoon before using overtime to take down Youngstown by a 3-2 final on Friday night.

Phantoms forward Jake Rozzi netted a pair of goals in Friday's game to tie him for the team lead in goals with four through eight games played. He's even on the team with rookie William Whitelaw and Justin Varner. Varner, a Shelby, Mich., native and Matthew Perkins, both have seven points on the season to lead the team.

Andrew Strathmann has been the biggest Phantoms producer from the blue line as he's collected six points (1g-5a) to lead their defensemen.

Jacob Fowler has taken the bulk of the playing time in net for Youngstown and he played every minute of last week's games against Team USA. Fowler has a 3.05 GAA and .906 SV% and was rated as a C-ranked player on NHL Central Scouting's initial players to watch list.

After Friday's game, Youngstown will once again play three straight against Team USA from November 23-26. The Phantoms will return to USA Hockey Arena to face the U18s on the night before Thanksgiving before returning to host the U17s for a pair on Friday and Saturday nights.
