MY 3 STARS
|
#92 - Michael Nylander
Nylander is a skilled center, with strong abilities in passing and puck
handling. Although Chicago's playoff stint was short-lived this year, he
contributed greatly to the team's efforts.
|
#25 - Alexander Karpotsev
A solid defenceman, Karpotsev has played for both the Rangers and the Maple
Leafs. Although not a frequent scorer, he has great offensive awareness which
often leads to a goal being scored.
|
#29 - Steve Passmore
Appearing in the playoffs this year for his first time, Steve Passmore is a
young backbench goalie who could very well break out in the near future.
