Brandon Prust is gaining more fans in Montreal by the day. Most thought the four-year, $10 million contract he signed this summer was an overpay, but Prust's impact is already being noticed. "It's hard to find guys who can actually play and contribute to the team besides fighting and protecting your teammates," said Dale Hunter, Prust's coach on the London Knights. "He's one of the unique players who can do both. He's a guy who's worth every penny because of what he brings to the game. He's a heart-and-soul kid . he'll do anything for the team. He puts the team ahead of anything. If the team needs a fight to lift the team he'll do it . if it needs a big hit he'll do it . block a shot . he does the intangibles that coaches love."
