    The Charlotte Checkers are the lone team to have two players named to these teams. 

    This is the first postseason All-Star selection for DiPietro, Pouliot, Blumel, Peca, Bear, Murray, Carrick, Leonard, and Steeves.

    MacDonald was a First Team All-Star in 2017-18 and Second Team All-Star in 2019-20. He set the AHL record for most goals in a season by defenseman yesterday. 

    Poturalski adds a fourth postseason All-Star selection to his resume that also includes two Calder Cups, a Jack A Butterfield Trophy as Playoff MVP, and two (soon to be three) JB Sollenberger trophies as AHL Top Scorer.

    Griffith now sits 38th all-time in AHL scoring after another strong season. This is the second time he has been named to the Second All-Star Team (2021-2022), he was also selected to the First-Team in 2015-16.
