We have already looked at the D and the Goalies, how does the forward group look?
In part one of our look at the Young Stars 2016 roster, we examined the Goaltenders and the Defensemen who are attending the Young Stars tournament this weekend in Penticton. The back end and crease look to be strong moving forward, but how do our front lines look?
Our forward group has had a substantial turnover from last year’s Young Stars roster. Brendan Gaunce has now played enough AHL games to be exempt from participating in this rookie showcase; Jake Virtanen as well as defenseman Ben Hutton are considered NHLers and are not required to play in this eventM; and Ronalds Kenins, Hunter Shinkaruk Dane Fox, and Jared ‘we barely knew ya’ McCann are no longer with the organization.
