Ryan Keller was a key member
of the leadership for the B-Sens. |
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. ... The American Hockey League announced
today that Binghamton Senators right wing Ryan Keller has
been selected the winner of the reGen Muscle Recovery
Beverage/AHL Performance of the Playoffs award for the 2011
Calder Cup postseason.
Under Keller's captaincy, the
Senators captured the first championship in 38 seasons of
professional hockey in the city of Binghamton. Keller
finished the 2011 Calder Cup Playoffs ranked second in the
AHL in scoring after putting up 10 goals and 15 assists for
25 points in 23 games.
The Senators' road to the
Calder Cup appeared to be headed for an early finish in the
first round when Binghamton fell behind Manchester three
games to one. But the Senators recovered in grand fashion
with three consecutive overtime victories, capped by
Keller's four-point performance in Game 7.
After the
team earned a six-game victory over Portland in the second
round, Keller scored a pair of series-clinching goals to
lead his club to the title. His overtime marker in Game 4
vs. Charlotte gave Binghamton the Eastern Conference
championship, and his third-period tally in Game 6 vs.
Houston was the difference in the Senators' Cup-clinching
3-2 victory in the Finals, enabling Keller, as team captain,
to accept the Calder Cup trophy from AHL President and CEO
David Andrews.
