Signed as a free agent following the Canucks development camp last summer, Michael Carcone had a respectable rookie season in the AHL. Used in a variety of roles and deployments, the Ajax, Ontario native ended the year with five goals and 13 assists in 61 games for the Comets.
Those point totals don't fully reflect the type of game Carcone plays. He is relentless in his puck pursuit, has a knack for the net and was defensiveably responsible. Being one of the few forwards at this year's Young Stars Classic for the Canucks, look for Carcone to be relied upon quite a bit.
