niedermeyer and martin are both 6-0 or 6-1 and around 200 lbs. no they dont play physically imposing styles but they have the bodies to take ever other shift punishment over 100 game seasons. thats why ness isnt projected higher IMO. neidermeyer scored 82 points in 57 in the whl during his draft yr...

Re: Man amongst boys?

He may have the skill, but I don't see that many 5'9" defensemen doing wonderful things in the NHL or college hockey for that matter. Yes he is a wonderful high school player, probably the best in the state, but I'm not going to crown him just yet. Keep in mind that he's only 16, right? He sti...

Ness is great to watch, he's gott'in a lot better since last year. Reminds me of Larry Olimb, but Ness is a little more physical. I agree. When he has the puck, there's a buzz in the crowd....just like how Olimb had the crowd buzzing in '87 . Very similar players....both play defense, both see the ...

You people from Roseau are unbelievable.....how you rip your coaches who just won state titles. I remember when you ran Bruce Olson out the year after he won the state title, and now you're complaining about Oliver? I swear that the people of Roseau and White Bear Lake have to have the worst hockey...

Re: List

Nice list iceberg...I'll repeat another post's score... NCAA championships Doug Woog-0 Don Lucia -2 I'm not sure how that relates to the question of Woog never recruiting out of the metro area. You could certainly add that in on a discussion of did he recruit the right players, but that wasn't the ...

Re: Back to Topic

Byfuglien is truly a scouting find. Here is a kid who did not play highschool or college, drafted in the 8th round(245 overall) and is currently an impact player in the NHL. His potential is still on the rise, as he gains experience and "savy" on the ice, his game will only get better. He...
