The Austrian league became the first league (of the ones I follow) to crown a champion last week. It took Klagenfurt a full four games to win the title.
MVP of the series went to Jamie Lundmark who also led the team in scoring this year. Lundmark broke into professional hockey the same year I began my detailed statistical database in 2001 and went one to play over 600 games in the AHL and NHL. This was his first season in Austria.
The team saw three NHL players make Klagenfurt their home briefly before the NHL returned. For what it's worth, Edmonton's Sam Gagner finished 7th on the team in scoring after playing just 21 games.
