By Bryan Reynolds -
With Ortmeyer coming up for his first action with Wild, we offer you this "Let's Meet" post so you at least have a small idea who the guy is and where he came from. Having been around the NHL since the 2003-04 season, Ortmeyer is truly a role player.
What that role is? After the jump.
First off, who is this guy?
Apparently he is a fan of silly faces, so that's good. He has good size, and is not incredibly old... at least, he is only six months older than me, so...
He is an Amrican, if that helps anyone like him more, and played college hockey for Michigan. That, of course, makes him dead to Nathan and most of the readers of this site, but Michigan is a powerhouse NCAA squad, and he played fairly decent hockey for them.
Here are his stats for the length of his measured hockey career:
Nothing jumping off the page at us, screaming SAVIOR! SAVIOR! Although, he seems to have staying power. He is consistent at every level he has played at, and the Wild need someone who can jump in and just play solid defensive hockey. Sounds like a match, at least for now.
