He is currently riding a 12-game point streak, and has recorded at least one point in 16 of the 19 games he's played. In addition to the All-Star nod, Patrick's performance has earned him callups to two different organizations, as he has played in two games each with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins and Syracuse Crunch.
