It's hard to vote against such a cool moment in Detroit, but I'm going with the unexpected. I covered Acciari for four seasons when he was with the Bruins and really enjoyed my time talking to him. But I cannot say I thought that Acciari was capable of what he did this season, scoring 20 goals, and especially what he did against the Ottawa Senators on Dec. 16 and again against the Dallas Stars on Dec. 20. Acciari has blossomed with the Panthers this season after signing with them as a free agent, and that was never more evident than in those consecutive games, capped by the three goals he scored in a span of 3:59 in the second period against the Stars. He completed his second straight hat trick on his first career penalty shot that had him celebrating, the bench erupting, and the hats flying.
