The panel then offered their thoughts on their leading candidates for Comeback Player of the Year this season. McKenzie and Matthew Barnaby went with Philadelphia Flyers’ winger Simon Gagne while Dreger chose Michael Ryder of the Boston Bruins.
“Coming back from a concussion is a very difficult thing to do and Gagne is scoring in the tough areas,” said Barnaby. “The Flyers are having a great year and he’s a big reason why.”
McKenzie stressed the enormity of Gagne’s return to form and the road he has had to travel to get there. Through 32 games this season, Gagne has 17 goals and 38 points.
“Gagne’s not just coming off a bad year, he’s coming back from having his career threatened,” said McKenzie.
