Hockey's newest Superstar: Nino Niederreiter

[MoG2222]

he was the best hockey player

[22metzfan]

Niederreiter is not the next Crosby, but that's fine by me. This kid is going to be a star, plain and simple. Tavares and Nino are going to be two of the games elite offensive players for years with the Islanders.

[simongagne33]

wow him and johnny T ? my god

[doublexnchuck]

@simongagne33 and Matt M!!!

[jjaj6]

hes garbage. GTFO of the 2011 tourny today

[rareflorence]

17 years old? tell me you're kidding.

[Metrostar57]

Niño is the next Crosby in 2-3 years.

[JbrennOdot]

@Metrostar57 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HA wow! I haven't laughed that much since the last time somebody said Ovechkin was better than Crosby! Thanks, I needed that!

[Joeli888]

Hopefully he's better draft than Dangle. Go El Nino!

[DrBlousonNoir]

Go Nino! Go Islander!

[PocketHercules99]

I think Tamba Bay picked conolly way too early and missed out on Nino

[LemmingAttack]

It makes me so sad that talent like this is doomed to wile away so many years in a terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE organization like the Islanders.

[EaTYoUrBrAiN]

@LemmingAttack he's gonna carry them!

[Tha4thLetterr]

signed today... let's go Isles!

[ProfessorBallsAss]

[saulpaulus]

I traveled 7-800 miles round trip to Prince George, BC from Terrace, BC to see him play the PG Cougars and it was worth it. I cannot be happier that he is an Islander. We are ALL Islanders!!!

[Khelen87]

Endli mal en bruchbari stürmer!!! Hopp nino!!

[kitchensracing]

He'll be a Atlanta Thrasher next season :)

[stephenspinato]

future isle please?

[spazemunky]

his style of play hinges on him remaining bigger and stronger than his opponents (which he is right now). will he still be in a few years playing with men in the NHL....who knows.

[ktimp1er]

@sndd0138 - that would neccessitate a first round draft pick haha

[evanderlazer]

hmm a 6'2 210 lbs winger who likes to play very physical and hard, I guess when you consider that he's just 2 days away from the cutoff of the 2011 nhl draft, it makes it that much more special, so he is obviously the youngest player being drafted this year, so he has a hell of alot more filling out to do, alot of potential, would not suprise me if he filled out at 6'3, 230 lbs goal scoring physical winger when all is said and done, but Ty Rattie has just as much potenital as him, maybe more so.

[stephanieroberts1]

@evanderlazer I love Nino and Ty but Nino is better then Ty right now. Ty has talent but he needs to develope more Nino still has work to do but not as much at Ty. I love watching both of them play for Portland.

[WinterhawksRule22]

He is definately the next NHL star.

Nino!!

[jecb9]

he has the same number as me :) and i play for a red team ahaha, he looks like a great prospect :)

[sndd0138]

this guy is coming to toronto.

[anthonychrisbradley]

i wish

[kirant]

@sndd0138 - Only if he falls to the 2nd round. Remember, the Ruins have got their 1st rounder in exchange for Kessel.

[azzurro808]

hope the rangers draft him

[cowboyzsuk81]

Damn this kid is gonna be something. he made some amazing insane goal at the CHL skill comp.

this kid will be in an NHL jersey pretty soon

[bradysux360]

This guy is purely amazing. Love going to Winterhawks games and seeing him play!

[Wildfighter37]

Superstar? You can call him a superstar when if he get to play in the NHL and continues to play that way in there.. He IS amazing but not a superstar, hopefully some day tho..

[stephanieroberts1]

@Wildfighter37 Anybody that watches him play in Portland can call him a Superstar. thats what he is. Maby not an Nhl Superstart yet but give him time. Right now to Portland he is one of our Superstars. Go NIno

[BrianBunka]

atta boy nino!
