Player Profiles (as of the end of season 3)
Centre
Blair Potts ~ Blair has been the Crooks' #1 centerman since opening day. He's a grizzled veteran who is known more for scoring than his playmaking skills. He's also known to score some big goals in clutch situations. Though his goal and overall point production has been dropping ever since his 50 goal performance in Season 1, he has managed to finish every season with an impressive positive +/- rating. He's a fan favourite in Kingston and many refer to him as the heart of the Crooks.

Crook since season 1
German Astrom ~ German quietly came to town at the start of season 3. In his rookie season, he had a few great games. Unfortunately for the Crooks, he's mostly been mediocre at best. He's often been accused of not being tough enough to make it in Kingston due to his habit dodging the physical aspects of the game. Management hopes he can prove his critics wrong as they've planned on this youngster filling the skates of some of the older Crook centermen.

Crook since season 3
Hnat Miikulainen ~ Hnat is a very misunderstood player who as an original Crook player has been in both the good and bad books with the Kingston staff. Hnat has an ego that would make Donald Trump green with envy. It all started on the opening day of training camp back in season 1 when he demanded his coach play him. The coach wanting to make an example basically benched him most of the season. Hnat learned his lesson and was rewarded with ice time in season 2. But midway through, Hnat's true colour began to show as he demanded to be the team's "Franchise Player". Management has decided to bench him ever since. If he can learn to be a team player, he could be a diamond in the rough that the Crooks need.

Crook since season 1
Marco Olander ~ New to the Crooks, only time will tell how Marco, an ancient 24 year old can cope with the game. He's already the subject of trade rumours.

Right Wing
Yannick Goulet ~ As soon as season 1 began, Yannick "The Panic" Goulet exploded out of the gate and made sure every Kingston fan knew that this was HIS team. In the MLD's offensively potent season 1, Yannick soared above the entire league and scored a mind boggling 81 goals in 82 games which was tied for the most in the league. Unfortunately for the Crooks and Goulet, the award voters decided against awarding the Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy for most goals in a season to co-winners. Yorba Linda's Markus Levy got the hardware in a controversial decision and Goulet got nothing. An event that soured the Crooks relationship with the Award Voters and also caused Goulet to lose his focus a little. His passion seems to have waived but Kingston still places their faith in him electing him as their Franchise Player. A position which will likely see him paste his name all over the Kinston record books. The league's record books are also within reach as Goulet's 153 goals in just 246 games are no doubt amongst the most any player has totaled in the MLD. Management hopes he can regain his spark and tear it up like he used to but he's looking more worn out with each passing season.

Ryan Saccoccia ~ Ryan is as stable and as consistent as they come. He's the only Crook player so far who can boast the feat of 3 consecutive 30 goals or more seasons. He's often credited his success to a training program so intense that it would bring most MLDers to their knees in defeat. What Ryan lacks in skill, he makes up for with his hardwork and uncanny ability to fill up opponents nets. His defensive game is a little shaky, but management doesn't seem to mind as long as he keeps lighting up goal lights. Ryan is closing in on 100 career goals and is expected to tally another 100 before he calls it a career.

Crook since season 1
Rolly McPhatty ~ Rolly is one big cloud of mystery. Many had high hopes for this blazing winger but those hopes soon turned to ash once season 1 came and went. It was expected Rolly was going to roll his way to higher plateaus in season 2 until he mysteriously vanished like a puff of smoke early in the season! He surfaced at the end of season 2 looking very scruffy, scrawny, and with a foggy memory inisting that he didn't want to discuss where he had been all that time. Rumour has it he moved to Amsterdam but that information has never been confirmed. Management decided to be generous and give McPhatty another chance by throwing him back into the lineup in hope he will light it up. Also, there is nobody who can take a hit like Rolly, who can take hits all night long and not feel a thing the next morning. The only question is whether or not McPhatty is here to stay, or he will disappear for another season.

Crook since season 1
Larry Jagger ~ Larry is more famous for being the son of a legendary rockstar than an athlete. Larry wanted so badly to escape his father's shadow and hoped he could one day do it by becoming household name in the sports world. That day has yet to come as Mick's boy has struggled to solidify his status within the Crooks organization. Instead of being a key player or superstar, he finds himself labelled as just an average player whose on-ice presense is rarely felt. Larry's struggles prove "you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need". What Larry needs to do is forget about topping his father, or else he'll see his MLD career get painted black. And there is no satisfaction in that.

Crook since season 1
Nolan Haapalainen ~ The future of Crooks could rest on this #1 draft pick's shoulders. This speedster possesses the speed and creativity to become a star in the MLD. The Crooks have high hopes and expectations for this kid with the lightning hands. Look for him to be given lots of ice time IF he can points on the board.

Wing
Pep Valta ~ Pep was destined to be a superstar. His name was mentioned in the early goings of the MLD as the top rated player. Though he hasn't his mark in the record books, he has been very dominate. His skills continue to develop and he is due for a breakthrough season. Pep is rumoured to be having a fling with one of the Crookettes(Mandy). Lets hope she doesn't give him a bad case of the gonorrhoea like she did to everyone else! Valta's got the accuracy and the skating that'll make yer head spin.

Crook since season 1
John Hawco ~ John is a grinder. A hard working LW who sadly won't see much more time in Kingston. But he has gone on the record and said that he can't wait to retire, even if its an early one. There had been high hopes for him on the team 3 seasons ago but hes slid into an average joe role instead.
It is doubtful that John will be back with the Crooks after this season's contract for him expires.
