Kevin Klein News Week

Kevin Klein is a reliable, behind-the-scenes defenseman. He doesn’t rack up a ton of points or PIMs, but comes to play every night and has been a steady part of the Nashville Predators lineup for six seasons for his consistency.

Within a couple of days he was the subject of two headlines. He had a mammoth fight with Antoine Roussel of the Dallas Stars on Monday. Two days later he was traded to the New York Rangers for Michael Del Zotto. It'll be a little harder to stay out of the spotlight in Madison Square Garden.
