4: Movable Spotlights
Sean Davies is most excited to watch Lias Ekholm-Gunnarsson perform out there. How can one not be excited to watch the SHL leader in points play. Lias was joint leading scorer with 60 goals tying Evil AllBran, but also finished 2nd in assists with 69 (nice) just 5 shy of leader Mikko Rashford. A phenomenal skater and elite talent on both ends of the ice, Lias is definitely one of the faces of the SHL, and while Davies is no stranger to their highlights (probably ending up on the wrong end of some of them in the past) getting a chance to watch them play without any pressure is sure to be a spectacle. He can’t wait to see all the tricks and skill they pull off on route to one of their elite snips top corner. let him grab a hotdog, a soda, and a few of his teammates and let the games begin!

5. Last man in
Obviously the best choice for last man in is my fellow New England teammate Petr Svoboda. Svoboda is an absolute wagon on offense, dicing up opposing defenses at will. He has been a huge player for us, and he definitely deserves the nod. Joining him in the east is defensemen Ben Der. Bold to assume Ben can still walk after the prodigious amount of shots he blocked for a poor Toronto team, but glad to see their selflessness and grit being rewarded with an ASG nod. In the west, it’s a pair of Edmonton players getting the call. Interesting to see both players coming from the same team, but both are very deserving. On the offensive side, Luke Laruque was a formidable 2-way forward for the Blizzard top line, while defensively Luca Hunziker was a selfless shot blocker with a knack for moving the puck and racking up assists. Both players played a key role in Edmonton’s success this season, and both are deserving of the honor. Congrats to all!
