Why Nate Telker's role is so important for the younger centers

[Telkster 550]

Telker has been the 1st line center for almost a year at Moscow now. instead of his usual 2nd line spot he's had, he's found himself a spot in the veteran core. He has a lot of young center's that will start knocking on the door for the 1st line spot. but it will be all the more important for Telker to push them. "Competition is good around the team. lots of these young guys are showing some really great potential, and a couple of them may pass me before I retire. My goal is to delay that as long as possible, so that there all the more eager to get better faster." Brandt and Calia are pushing themselves to one day be the next big center duo. Calia had a good rookie season with 24 points, he took a leap up in points when he put up 6 in 10 post season games. Brandt is coming off a VHLM season that you gotta love to see, with 133 points (57G,76A).
