Talent Analysis
Wiercioch has a nice blend of size and skill. He’s a good all around defenseman who can play in many different situations. A mobile puck moving defenseman, he has very good hands but needs to better his skating. Needs to add some size and strength to become effective down the road. Has the smarts and know how to be effective.
Future
Wiercioch has committed to the University of Wisconsin. The Badgers have yet to announce if the blueliner will join the team in Madison or wait until the fall of 2009.
