With the 87th pick the Denver Spurs take D - Scott Niedermayer (Devils/Mighty Ducks).
In my opinion Niedermayer is the best defenseman of this decade, barely edging Niklas Lidstrom.
Niedermayer is such a fun player to watch in person. He is so fast on his skates and smooth and smart with the puck; he almost always makes a perfect play clearing the zone or making an outlet pass.
He is one of the few players to win the Stanley Cup (1995, 2000, 2003), an Olympic gold medal (2002), a World Championship (2004), a World Cup of Hockey championship (2004), and a Memorial Cup (1991).
He won the 2004 Norris Trophy and was robbed of it in 2006.
