The Monsters are still rolling in the Calder Cup playoffs, where Sedlak’s monster play includes six goals and 11 points, along with 16 penalty minutes and a plus-9 rating, through 12 matches. That has him tied for the club lead in postseason points.

He’s played a key role for the Cleveland-based club, bringing depth to a team that is full of promising prospects who are looking to parlay that skill into a Calder Cup championship in the coming weeks.
