Jason Earl Wiemer (born April 14, 1976) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey forward. He most recently played for the New Jersey Devils of the NHL during the 2005–06 NHL season. ==Playing career== Jason Wiemer was drafted 12th overall in the 1991 WHL Bantam Draft by the Portland Winterhawks. Wiemer was drafted 8th overall by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 1994 NHL Entry Draft from the Portland Winterhawks of the Western Hockey League. After starting his fourth season with the Winterhawks in 1994–95, Wiemer turned professional after 16 games and made his NHL debut with Tampa Bay. After playing in four seasons with the Lightning and struggling with the weight of offensive expectations due to his junior career, Weimer was traded at the deadline in the 1997–98 season to the Calgary Flames for Sandy McCarthy, a 3rd round pick (Brad Richards) and a 5th round pick in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft on March 24, 1998. Wiemer then played with the Flames for three seasons establishing himself as an effective enforcer and agitator due to his size, propensity for fighting and ability to deliver hits consistently. Prior to the 2001–02 season, Wiemer was traded by the Flames, along with Valeri Bure, to the Florida Panthers for Rob Niedermayer on June 23, 2001. Jason recorded a career high 31 points in his lone season with Panthers before he was dealt to the New York Islanders for Branislav Mezei on July 3, 2002. In 2003–04, his second season with the Islanders, Wiemer was claimed off waivers by the Minnesota Wild on November 13, 2003. On August 5, 2004, Wiemer signed as a free agent with the Calgary Flames. On March 9, 2006, Wiemer was traded during the 2005–06 season from the Flames to the New Jersey Devils for a fourth round pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft. Reaching the playoffs for only the third time in his career, Weimer helped the Devils advance to the Conference Semifinals. In early July, 2006, Wiemer underwent reconstructive knee surgery missing the entire 2006–07 season for the Devils. Wiemer has not played professional hockey since. He played 726 career NHL games, scoring 90 goals and 112 assists for 202 points and also compiled 1,420 penalty minutes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jason Wiemer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
