Talent Analysis
Fiegl has never been a goal scorer at any level. He is a decent-sized player who isn’t afraid to engage physically and has the tenacity and persistence to win puck battles throughout a game. His skating is below average and must improve.
Future
Fiegl will return to Cornell University for his sophomore season during the 2015-16 season. Drafted as a long-range seventh-round project in 2014 primarily due to his size and competitiveness, he has some potential as a lower line energy, shutdown forward but must continue to address his skating. technical skills and tactical game to one day earn an entry-level contract.
