Brett Bruneteau

I thought I'd do a little research on some of the guys that the Badgers are recruiting, and provide a bunch of links to what I find. Brett Brunetau is a known 2007-08 recruiting target of the Badgers. He is considering UW, CC, Denver, Michigan, Minnesota, and his hometown school, Nebraska-Omaha.

After playing for Shattuck St. Mary's and serving as captain of the U.S. team that won the Under-17 Five Nations Cup in Huttwil, Switzerland last year, Brett decided to play this season for the Omaha Lancers rather than SSM or the USNTDP. Brett's Grandfather Eddy Bruneteau had played for the Lancers and had his number retired, but the club decided to let Brett wear his grandfather's number as he has done throughout his hockey career.

Brett's idols include Maurice Richard and Jarome Iginla as he feels they're the only two players in history to do everything well from scoring to playmaking to fighting. For more on that and other topics, check out Brett's myspace page.
