I am pretty sure I can safely say that nobody expected Brendan Gaunce would merit his own post in the player reviews this year. A late first round pick back in the underwhelming 2012 NHL Draft, Gaunce never was able to find his footing in the NHL. He spent seven years in the Vancouver Canucks organization, splitting time between the big club and Utica before joining the Bruins organization for a season. After playing just one game in the NHL with Boston, Gaunce headed overseas to try his luck in Sweden, where he ended up winning the SHL championship.
