Jagr Among Weekly Honorees

Week 2 honorees are:

  • Best goalkeeper: Ilya Proskuryakov (Metallurg Magnitogorsk). Proskurvakov recorded three wins last week, including two shut-outs and a scoreless streak of 175 minutes and 19 seconds. His save percentage in the three victories was 98.7.
  • Best defender: Alexander Guskov (Lokomotiv Yaroslavl). Guskov had two assists and a +/- rating of +5.
  • Best forward: Jaromir Jagr (Avangard Omsk). In three matches Jagr scored three goals, as well as recorded an assist and a +2 rating.
  • Best rookie: Nikolai Belov (Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk). In two matches the rookie blue-liner tallied a goal and recorded a +3 rating, while averaging 15 minutes and five seconds of ice time.
