MISCELLANEOUS
Rob Niedermayer was acquired at the 2001 Entry Draft in Florida, from the hosting Florida Panthers. The Flames dispatched disgruntled winger Val Bure to play with his brother Pavel, along with center Jason Wiemer, for Niedermayer and a 2nd round pick (Russian goaltender, Andrei Medvedev). Niedermayer is a product of the British Columbia minor hockey system, he played his junior hockey in Alberta with the Medicene Hat Tigers. His family lives in Cranbrook, BC, within driving distance of Calgary.
SCOUTING REPORT

Based on skill and attributes Rob Niedermayer is the quintessential number one center - possessing great speed, good hands, and above average size. Unfortunately, Niedermayer hasn't been able to parlay this package into a consistent, productive NHL career. He needs to play in traffic and away from the perimeter to be more affective.
PROJECTION
In acquiring Niedermayer, Flame's general manager Craig Button gambled that in Calgary Niedermayer will rediscover the offensive magic that made him the #5 pick in the 1993 entry draft. If he can, the offensive production coupled with the defensive savvy Niedermayer developed in Florida, will make the pivot and excellent two way center. Time will tell.

NOTES


2001 Highlights: The 2000-01 season marked another year in which the talented center struggled with consistency. Burdened with high expectations due to his draft position, Niedermayer became somewhat of a Panther fan whipping boy over the last few seasons. A change of scenary was needed.
Background: Niedermayer was a member of the 1993 Canadian World Junior team that struck gold. ... His brother, Scott Niedermayer is a two time Stanley Cup champion with the New Jersey Devils.
