Before this year, Kirkland had 33 goals in his first five AHL seasons combined. After setting new goals for himself with first-year Heat coach Mitch Love before this season, the 25-year-old Kirkland finished sixth in the entire league with 219 shots and seemingly turned into a high-end sniper overnight.
Wolf posted three shutouts in Stockton's Pacific Division Final win over Colorado. Kirkland scored three game-winning goals.
Justin Kirkland is capping off his breakout year with a terrific playoff performance
