History
2007-08: York had another very strong season, where he took the Kodiaks to the RBC Cup final. York won the Top Goaltender award at the RBC Cup. He did not start all Camrose’s games this season, rotating starts with Mathieu Larochelle. The pair combined to win the AJHL Top Team Goaltenders award, the second straight season York combined to win this award. York started the majority of the games in the playoffs, and all the RBC Cup games.
2008-09: York appeared in 16 games in his freshman season at RPI. He finished his first season with a 5-10-0 record, 3.02 goals against average, and .901 save percentage.
2009-10: As a sophomore, York took over starting duties for the RPI Engineers. In 33 games, he finished with a 14-13-4 record, 2.54 goals against average, and .910 save percentage.
2010-11: York signed a two-year, entry-level contract with Columbus in March 2011 following his junior season at RPI and made his pro debut; appearing in four games with AHL Springfield. York was 3-1 with the Falcons, including one shutout and finished with a 2.04 GAA and .926 save percentage. York started 34 of 38 games for RPI, which finished in a three-way tie for fourth in the ECAC Hockey League. He was 18-10-3 with 2 shutouts and had a 2.17 GAA and .924 save percentage.
Talent Analysis
A big goaltender who covers a lot of net and plays well positionally. He has not faced top quality opposition, but has played extremely well against Tier-2 shooters. York must improve his lateral mobility. He stays composed in big games and has held up very well under pressure. Shows good fight, but must improve his quickness.
Future
York performed extremely well for Springfield in the final few games of last season and will battle for the starter’s position at Springfield’s training camp in the fall.
