Rookie forward Klisz named to NA3HL First Team

WATERFORD, MI - The North American 3 Hockey League announced its annual award winners recently and Metro Jets' forward Steve Klisz was named to the All-3HL First Team.

Klisz, a 20th-round draft pick of the Jets in 2011 out of Livonia Churchill High School, tied for the team lead in scoring with Mike MacKinnon as each tallied 67 points. Klisz posted 30 goals and 37 assists while playing in all 48 regular-season games. He also recorded 21 multi-point games, including four four-point performances.

The season started out on the right foot for Klisz as he scored the overtime game winner in Metro's season-opening 8-7 win over Flint on Sept. 9. He then added a team-best three goals and five points in three playoff games against Cleveland.
