<div align="center">Ryan Jesster – One of the Few Left</div>

Ryan has been the Dragons’ only starting goaltender in their long and rich history. Even before the puck dropped on season one Ryan was making headlines, during the SHL’s rookie tournament Ryan turned heads with various dazzling displays on goal and made him the unanimous first overall pick in every mock draft. In an interesting move the Dragons traded for the first overall pick.



Jesster has flew under the radar for many seasons, he seem to always stand in the shadow of goalie greats Fernando Garcia and Mike Honcho, however Jesster really came out of his shell and burst into the SHL elite in season 4, ever since then he has been the star everyone pegged him to be. It has now been 7 seasons since and Ryan is still playing however the physical toll of his career is starting to show, in season 11 Ryan’s statistics were largely average and he sat pretty much in the middle of the pack among all goalies, he finished the season with 26 wins, 13 loses, and 5 over-time loses, with a goals allowed average of 3.07 and a save percentage of .851 with no shutouts. However this was good enough to help the Calgary Dragons reach the playoffs as the last seed in the Western Conference.



During the playoffs Jesster stepped up his play recording 9 wins, 7 defeats, and 3 over-time loses with a goals against average of 2.73 and a saves percentage of .868, this was good enough to carry the Dragons into the Challenge Cup finals in which they met the Hamilton Steelhawks, in the finals the Steelhawks offense manhandled the Dragons, and in the end the Hawks took the series 4 games to 1, it was a sad end for a career that is nearing the end, Jesster will always be a big part of the SHL’s history and it will be a somber day when he is gone, but for now we still get to enjoy his play.
