The Resume

(August 31, 1973- )
Drafted by the New Jersey Devils as the 3rd overall pick in 1991 NHL draft
Older brother of Rob Niedermayer

Why he might be annoying:

His brother Rob is better looking than him.
His brother Rob used to date Niki Taylor.
He lets his hair grow out even though it's been getting thinner and thinner throughout the years.
He lets his facial hair grow as the regular season reaches an end and the playoffs begin.
He is considered a better offensive defenseman than a defensive defenseman.
He once said: 'I would hope a day will come that there won't be fighting in hockey.'
He was suspended for the last 9 games of the 1999-2000 regular season for high sticking Peter Worrell (of the Florida Panthers).

Why he might not be annoying:

He is one of the fastest hockey players.
He has a career plus minus of +173.
He has yet to play in a season where his plus minus was in the negatives.
He is an Assistant Captain on the New Jersey Devils.
His younger brother, Rob, is also a pro hockey player.
He was blind sided by Tie Domi during the 2001 East Conference Semifinals, which lead to him being unconscious for three minutes.
Some hockey analysts feel that he hasn't fully recovered from that hit.
He accepted Tie's lame apology and holds no personal grudges against him.
