Siouxhockey03 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Gifford who was a senior at Moorhead last year was drafted in the 3rd round yesterday by the Penguins 85th overall. I took this from POI Name: Brian Gifford Chosen: 85th Position: Center Size: 6-1, 173 Shoots: Left Born: Nov. 12, 1985; Fargo, N.D. 2003-04 team: Moorhead, Minn. (high school) Numbers: 19 goals, 37 assists, 26 penalty minutes in 26 games Central ranking: 130th, North American skaters Noteworthy: Another player who impressed Penguins at tryout. ... Father is 6 feet 7, so team is expecting he still will grow. ... Currently mulling four offers from NCAA Division I schools but could go to USHL. Malone's analysis: "He's got good hands, and he's a really good kid who works hard at his game. His skating was a little off, and we saw him at the tryout, and it didn't look that bad. All of a sudden, we're sitting there going, 'Whoa.' " He would be an awesome player to pick up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
