Today in history: August 13


One birthday
Casey DeSmith: Ice goaltender from 2009-11, he played in 64 regular season games and posted a 2.79 GAA. He had a 33-24-3 record, including 22-13-2 in 2010-11, when he was the team's primary starter. DeSmith had two shutouts that season. He made his mark in the 2010 playoffs, coming on in relief and helping the Ice win three straight games to beat Cedar Rapids 3-2 in a best-of-5. He also backstopped a sweep of Waterloo in the opening round of the 2011 playoffs. He will head back to his home state of New Hampshire to play college hockey at UNH this fall. A native of Rochester, N.H., he is 20.
