After a few lost years in Toronto and several difficult injuries, many GM's around the league had probably written off Jiri Tlusty coming into 2011-2012. Yet last year was the 24 year-old's best season by far, producing 36 points, 136 shots on net, and missing only three games in total. He enters 2012-2013 with all the right kinds of momentum, and could prove to be a steal in the later rounds. (Updated 8/14/12)
