Brian McMillan, 6-2, 200, Roseau, Minn. (Roseau High School)
McMillan was an honorable mention all-state selection for the Rams as a senior in 2006 and made the jump from high school to the WCHA, where he spent four seasons at Colorado College.
Following his playing days with the Tigers, he signed with the Kalamazoo Wings and is now in his fourth season of professional hockey.
Saturday, McMillin was named the Most Valuable Player of the Ray Miron President's Cup playoffs after the Americans' game seven, 3-2 overtime victory over Wichita Falls.
He led the CHL playoffs with 12 goals, scoring three game winners, including the winners in games two and four of the finals.
