This is part 2 of the article that deals with the players to watch in the coming NHL season. This part will cover players from the other 15 teams in alphabetical order. I will just repeat myself when I say that I have tried to pick players that have a something to prove rather than the biggest stars. Sometimes this may well be the same person.
