Ryan Lasch

History

Was the only underclassmen named as one of the Hobey Baker finalists in 2008. He is also just the third St. Cloud State player to be named a finalist in the program's history, joining Mark Hartigan and Bobby Goepfert.

2007-08: He led the Huskies with 53 points (25 goals, 28 assists) in 40 games this season. His 53 points ranks fourth in the nation and leads all WCHA players. Lasch is a two-time WCHA Player of the Week honoree this season and ended the regular season as the WCHA scoring champion with 34 points (17 goals, 17 assists) in league play. He was also named to the All-WCHA First Team.  Most recently, the sophomore sensation led St. Cloud State to their second consecutive and seventh overall appearance in the NCAA Tournament before falling to third-seeded Clarkson in the East Regional semi-final on Saturday to officially end the season.

Talent Analysis

St. Cloud State head coach Bob Motzko's comments on Lasch: "He really works hard and battles just as hard in the classroom now as he does on the ice. There's no question that he is the go-to guy on our team, but Ryan is also an unbelievable playmaker. He's got an unbelievable knack for putting the puck on his teammates' tape. A lot of nights it's very subtle but he's great at it."
