With a claim as one of the first really good American Defenseman, Reed Larson learned his craft from the legendary Herb Brooks at the University of Minnesota.

A three time NHL All Star and one time Canada Cup player for the United States, Reed Larson had eight seasons where he had at least 60 Points.  Larson was never an All Star though the Calder Trophy runner-up had more than an good career in the National Hockey League.  Historically, Larson was the first American born blueliner to score 200 Goals in the NHL.
