"Aitcheson, who has been a force all season, left his mark all over this game, scoring the opening goal of the night, which proved to be the game-winner. With 1:21 remaining in the first period, Parker Von Richter found Aitcheson in the space between the circles, and the 2025 first-round pick made no mistake, burying the puck in the corner."
"Since the first round, Aitcheson has piled up points, totaling 21 (5 G, 16 A) in 14 games - tied for the most among all defensemen in the playoffs with St. Louis Blue prospect Adam Jiricek."
"With his team on the brink of elimination, needing to win three straight, Aitcheson played what might be his best hockey of the season. In a must-win Game 5, Aitcheson recorded two assists, and to force a Game 7, he registered a hat-trick of assists in Game 6."
Kashawn Aitcheson has been instrumental in leading the Barrie Colts to the OHL Finals, winning the Bobby Orr Trophy as Eastern Conference Champions.

His performance included a hat-trick of assists in Game 6 and two assists in a must-win Game 5. The Colts will face the Kitchener Rangers in the finals, with Aitcheson set to turn professional next season after signing his ELC with the Islanders.
