Olivers MurnieksNoteGood retreat and puck recovery, then a long diagonal pass far side createsa zone entry. Then he goes hard to get position at the crease.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksNoteOut to kill a penalty against the top US unit.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksNoteLooks top-heavy as he skates except when driving.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksNoteThe fact that he is centering the top penalty kill unit late in a close game at just sixteen years old says a lot about his defensize-zone abilities.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksNoteGreat one-touch feed to the low slot.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksNoteAnother great feed, this one across the low slot, still not paying off, though.Brian FogartySioux City vs USNTDP U17s (USHL)10/12/202411/13/202410325
Olivers MurnieksSummaryHe is a solid-framed player who looks like a work in progress offensively, but a center who has the right game mindset to just keep getting better. His defensive play is excellent, the question is whether he develops better explosiveness with his feet and offensive intensity.
