History
2005-06: The 2005-06 season proved to be both a challenge and a valuable learning experience for the Walworth, NY native. Sauer appeared in 23 games for the maize and blue, posting an 11-6-4 record that included one shutout. His lone shutout (and one of his most memorable outings) came on his 18th birthday on Jan. 6. In that game, Sauer made 26 saves to help lead Michigan to a 4-0 win over Alaska Fairbanks.
Talent Analysis
Sauer is a tall, lanky goaltender with terrific athleticism and quickness. While he is still very much a project, Sauer showed glimpses of his vast potential. He has an excellent skill set that needs to be refined. Sauer has great reflexes and is virtually impenetrable when he is on his game. He is a competent puck-handler and has a good glove. He can stay square to shooters and has shown a willingness to come out and challenge as well. Sauer’s confidence was an issue at times throughout the season but growth, maturity and experience should help build that over time.
Future
Attends the University of Michigan.
