Jason Missiaen

Missiaen is a monstrous (6-8), former Montreal draft pick who is making his way up the Rangers' organizational pipeline and fast. He's one of four backstops (including Cam Talbot, Jeff Malcom and Scott Stajcer) competing for a roster spot with the Hartford Wolf Pack of the AHL and Missiaen's numbers might suggest he has a slight edge over his competitors. Since signing with the Rangers as a free agent in March 2011, the 23-year-old has posted a combined record 36-22-5 and five shutouts through 70 games in the ECHL and AHL. For now, he'll bide his time in the minors with Henrik Lundqvist and Martin Biron ahead of him at the NHL level. But with Lundqvist's contract expiring at the end of the season and Biron's advancing age, keeper league owners should continue to monitor his progress with Hartford.

The towering 6'8" Missiaen is very much a prospect at this stage in his young career. The 21-year-old won't be seeing any action with the Blueshirts this year. Fantasy owners can look elsewhere.
