Guillaume Desbeins, with the Gwinette Gladiators hopfully just for now.
Few players have faces that love the camera like Guillaume Desbiens, a young man we have seen too few times on Chicago ice. Before I descend into full bunny mode lets talk about what makes this French Canadian so special. Two years out of the tough Quebec Juniors as a RW he seems to have been caught in a farm system rich in forwards. Causing him to seemingly languish on the pine in Chicago or to keep sharp in Gwinette with the Wolves farm team the Gladiators. For what it is worth my personal observations on him as a player, is he is a rare offensive player who has the tough attitude of a blueliner. Desbiens skating skills are solid, he is fast enough to make it difficult to photograph him, as beautiful as his "line" is on the ice. Although his name does not appear on the Wolves "clear day" roster such lists are not carved in stone. One can wish something positive happens to bring a young player with as much of promise as Guillaume Desbiens up from the south for the remainder of the season and playoff run.
Mom and Dad Debiens this one is for you, Happy Easter!
