Not a bad list of players we've had the pleasure of watching over the past few seasons.

I was especially pleased that Malceski finally earned the honour, after nearly making it on several previous occasions. Given how punctuated his career has been with knee injuries, he's been a remarkably consistent performer over a long stretch of time and, like Leo Barry and Nick Davis, will eventually retire with a key "moment" to savour.
