The American Hockey League has announced that
Erik Gustafsson (D) has been selected to play
in the 2013 AHL All-Star Classic on January 28
in Providence, RI. This is the second time he
has been named to the annual league showcase of
star players. He also played in the All-Star Classic
in Hershey in 2011 as a rookie and won the puck-handling
contest in the skills competition the day before
the game.
This year's game will air locally on Time Warner
Cable Sports (Channels 50 and 1803-HD in Glens
Falls) and on various cable channels throughout
the U.S.
Erik Gustafsson (24 GP, 3-11-14, 27 PIM) is in
his third season with the Adirondack Phantoms.
The Kvissleby, Sweden native came to the Philadelphia
Flyers' organization from Northern Michigan University
at the end of the 2009-10 season.
Last year, he played in 30 games with the Philadelphia
Flyers scoring 1 goal and 4 assists. He also played
in 28 games with the Phantoms registering 1 goal
and 16 assists. Perhaps his career highlight and
the biggest goal of his life came on April 22,
2012 in Game 6 against the Pittsburgh Penguins
in the playoffs. He beat Marc-Andre Fleury to
virtually nail-down the series and advance Philadelphia
to the next round.
Recent Phantoms to have played in the AHL All-Star
Classic:
Michael Leighton, 2012 (Atlantic City, NJ)
Erik Gustafsson, 2011 (Hershey, PA)
Jon Matsumoto, 2010 (Portland, ME)
Danny Syvret, 2009 (Worcester, MA)
New Adirondack addition Brian Boucher also played
in the 1998 All-Star Classic in Syracuse as a
member of the Philadelphia Phantoms.
"Gus" has been out of action the past
few weeks with a lower body injury. If he is unable
to play in the All-Star Classic then he will be
replaced on the roster.
