History
Nemisz had already achieved quite a bit hockey-wise before joining the Windsor Spitfires in the fall of 2006--during the 2004-05 season, his minor midget team, the Clarington Toros, won the Ontario Minor Hockey Association championship. Nemisz was then selected seventh overall in the 2006 OHL Priority Draft.
2006-07: The big center appeared in 62 games and recorded 34 points in his rookie season with the Spitfires. Although his –22 plus/minus rating was not very impressive, that was as much a function of the quality of his team as it was Nemisz's poor defensive play.
2007-08: This season there was a big difference in both Nemisz's play and his team's results. In 68 games, he posted 67 points (34 goals, 33 assists) and a plus/minus rating of +28. He was also tied for the team lead with 15 goals on the power play. The team even gave him an honor for Dedication and Determination at its season-ending awards program. Chosen to play in the CHL Top Prospects game and for Team Canada in the recently concluded 2008 U-18 WJCs in Russia, Nemisz's stock has been rising over the last year.
Talent Analysis
Excellent in front of the net, hard to move and with soft hands for a player of his size, Nemisz will make a good power forward, if he can improve his skating and general agility. To be successful at the next level, he will have to get to the net quickly and be in position to put the puck past the netminder. Nemisz must also work on being consistently physical in his play, so that he can be the force on the ice that his position requires.
