Uhtred hits 100 points for the first time

[leafsman 207]

Uhtred scored over 100 points for the first time in his career this season, hitting 101 points. .  Uhtred sure did leave iit right up until the final 2 games of the season to reach the century mark.  With 9 games left in the season he was nine points shy of 100 and given his points per game pace at the time it looked like it was inevitable.  In the 7 games after getting to 91 points, Uhtred had 4 games without scoring a point.  Uhtred had a total of 95 points with 2 games left and still had a shot at 100 but would take some great performances to do so.  In the second last game of the season against Toronto Uhtred got 2 Assits which meant he would need 3 in the final game against Los Angeles.  Uhtred got on the board early  with an assist on Campbell's pp goal 6:30 into the game.  The second period went scoreless leading Uhtred to need a big third period.  The bears opened the scoring on the powerplay with Uhtred assisting on a Timothy Brown goal.  Uhtred was now just a point away from the century club with nearly a period to go.  Uhtred hit the 100 point mark with another powerplay assist his 60thof the season. Uhtred after the game thanked for giving him extra powerplay time in his attempt to reach 100.  "Blake Campbell spoke to me after practice before the final 2 games of the season and let me know that he will do his best to try to help me reach 100 points by giving me extra powerplay time. This is what makes him such a special GM, he wants to win and things like this inspire his players to be the best they can be.  Guys love playing in Seattle and  he is the reason why players keep resigning with the team.  He cares about his guys.   I can't thank him enough for helping me become the player that I am today.
