History
Minnesota's 2006 Mr. Hockey should be the first Minnesota high school player selected in this year's draft. Fischer has consistently been one of the top prospects for his age and earning a spot on the Minnesota Select 16 and 17 teams in 2004 and 2005. Fischer is a three-time All-Conference Selection, and was named to the AP All-State team in 2006. Fischer attended the USA Junior Team Evaluation Camp in August 2006.
2007-08: In his sophomore season with the University of Minnesota (WCHA), Fischer played in all 45 games. He ranked third in scoring among the team’s defensemen with 14 points (2+12). He notched the game-winning goal with the first goal of a 3-0 blank of Alaska Anchorage (11/16) for his first career goal. He assisted Mike Howe’s game-winner with 12.47 seconds left in WCHA Final Five against St. Cloud State (3/20). He notched an assist in the NCAA regional loss to Boston College. He was paired with Colorado Avalanche prospect Derek Peltier for nearly the entire season.
Talent Analysis
Fischer logged Chris Pronger-length ice time for Apple Valley his senior season, playing in all situations. The tall defenseman skates strongly with a wide base. He does not rush the puck up the ice often, but he can hit the breakout pass and rarely makes a mental mistake. Fischer often stepped up to a position on the half-board for power plays and did not seem out of place fore checking and handling the puck as a forward. Fischer's strength is that he plays a steady game and makes the players around him better.
