Head coach Erik Largen had this to say about Jandric's performance this past month, "Steven has been a dominant force on the ice during the second half of the year. Every time he is on the ice right now he is a threat to create an offensive opportunity. He is hard to knock off of pucks and is tenacious to be able to get pucks back. Looking forward to seeing what Steven and the team can do in the postseason."
