Team Hangin' at the Dome completes its starting roster lineup by reuniting the steady Defense pairing of Robyn Regehr and
Jordan Leopold

Playing career
Leopold was drafted in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft 44th overall by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, and is considered to be a solid offensive defenseman. In 1999, the year in which he was drafted, he scored 23 points in the regular season playing for the University of Minnesota. In 2002, he won the Hobey Baker Award for being the season's outstanding player in college hockey. He also played for the USA in the World Championships that year.
Although he was drafted in 1999, he would not begin his NHL career until the 2002–03 NHL season. He played 58 games for the Calgary Flames and scored 4 goals and 14 points. In his second season, Leopold would look like a seasoned veteran, playing in all 82 regular season games and scoring 33 points as well as contributing to the Flames' playoff run to the Stanley Cup Final, play which earned him a spot in the defense of the American national team for the 2005 World Championships and the 2006 Winter Olympics.
On June 24, 2006, during the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, Leopold was traded to the Colorado Avalanche with a 2nd round pick in the 2006 draft (Codey Burki) and a 2007 2nd round pick (Trevor Cann) in exchange for Alex Tanguay.[1]
