If I'm not mistaken, we had profiles on each except Nodler, so here's a free look on hm from the Hlinka last August:

Quote:
Josh Nodler (C) - 6'0, 196lbs - Apr 27, 2001
Nodler is another player that I think showed enough in this tournament to be moved into our top 100. His game is predicated on an elite ability to find his teammates in the offensive zone. He was easily one of the better pure playmakers at this tournament and found lanes and teammates that few others could. His vision is outstanding and he seems to have a mental picture of all ten skaters on the ice at all times. He can exploit the smallest hole and has an acute sense of timing and draw weight. Teammates of his need to always be ready as Nodler probably could have had even more point production in this tourney if not for surprised teammates bobbling his passes. What Nodler needs to work on is rounding out his game. He is not a real shooting threat and teams who play him often will learn to key on others forcing him to shoot. He needs to develop his shot in order to keep the opposition honest. Additionally he needs to work on his overall conditioning and fitness. He had a tendency to have less of an impact as the game wore on and the same drop-off could be seen even within a shift. I'd probably move Nodler into the 55-75 range in with Rees and Gritsyuk. He needs to develop his game but I haven't seen many better at moving the puck in this age group.
