per FSN:
MINNEAPOLIS -- Hockey players can be a boisterous bunch, often chirping at each other constantly both on and off the ice.
Not Kyle Rau.
The Gophers senior captain doesn't say a whole lot on the rink, and he's quiet away of it, too. Yet even though the 5-foot-8 forward is one of the smallest and most soft-spoken players on Minnesota's roster, there's no question he's the team leader.
"He's an extremely hard worker in practice, and he's a winner," said Minnesota head coach Don Lucia. "I think that's why he was probably so ticked off that we lost that final game last year, a chip in his basket for what he's been able to accomplish. Kyle is a team guy. He is a winner. He's driven. He's not a guy that talks a lot. He's just a guy that does it."
