Grand Rapids Griffins Alumni Report 2/10
By Jason Kasiorek
www.griffinscentral.com
February 26, 2010

Center Jason Spezza leads the way with 33 points among the 31 former Griffins to see time in the NHL this season. Players that formerly suited up for Grand Rapids have played for over 185 different teams so far this season from KHL to the asian league. First year man Pavol Demitra is the only remaining Griffins from the first season still playing in the NHL, but several fan favorites have taken to Europe including Donald MacLean, and most recently Darryl Bootland and Francis Lemieux. Jiri Hudler leads the 19 man representation in the KHL, scoring 51 points for Moscow Dynamo.
