Belpedio makes history in NHL debut

Former Miami hockey captain Louie Belpedio gives the same thoughtful interview as he did a month ago, and plays the same offensive-defenseman style of hockey as he did at the Steve ‘Coach’ Cady arena. Now, however, he’s played himself into the Minnesota Wild’s record books.

Twenty-one-year-old Belpedio assisted on a pair of goals on Saturday night to become the first Wild player in history to record a multi-point game in his NHL debut.

“It was fun. I was pretty nervous going into it, but once I got settled I felt comfortable,” Belpedio said to me on Monday.
