Vidmar found his game once, arriving in Maine, putting up three goals and five assists for eight points in 12 games before suffering a season-ending hand injury. The Swedish forward has played 210 games putting up 55 goals and 78 assists for 133 points as he’s spent time with the Norfolk Admirals, Adirondack Thunder, Savannah Ghost Pirates, and Maine Mariners.
