asked a Swiss guy I know from a German hockey board about Berra. Says he thinks that Feaster's "best outside the NHL" phrase is an exaggeration, but he is pretty high on Berra. Says he thinks he's the best goalie in the Swiss league and the sole reason for Biel even reaching the playoffs and not being destroyed there. Says stats don't tell the whole story because Biel is a bad team defensively. Says Berra pulls off highlight saves on a regular basis, though not sure what he can do on NA ice. Says he's a good character guy, down to earth.
