Lander is a very smart two-way player with lots of energy, and the ability to put pressure on defense, and set up shooting position. Playing as both a center and left wing, he has respectable faceoff skills, but his strength is in playmaking, and setting up game-breaking opportunities in the offensive zone. His gritty, physical approach to the game means that he holds his own in traffic and battles well in corners. He is also aggressive on the forecheck, with a style of his own, both intelligent and courageous.

USHL Under the Radar

Mon, 11/24/2008 - 10:16admin
An early blizzard hitting the Plains signaled to every one that hockey season was officially here. Now the best in the Midwest are a quarter through their 60-game season and we find a league that is enjoying a fair amount of parity in each division. Every roster has some talent that can get their team streaking and that should lead to some very interesting play-off runs later in the year. These five players are working hard to help their squads to do great things this winter.
