Not necessarily the best players, I think the main reason Fournier got playing time over some of the rookies that came in at the end of the season is because of his familiarity with the system, teammates and the league.
Fournier may not have as much potential, but at that time he was better than the rookies (except for dekeyser) and yes familiarity with the system helped but his experience in the AHL was greater too
