Excerpts from Zander Hollander's Guide to Pro Hockey, 1975-76 (by Reyn Davis)

Spends his summers in the Minnesota town of Swift (Pop. 5) ... Just the Hangsleben family lives there ... Whalers are very high on him ... His emergence from the minors coincided with the realigning of the New England defense after the departure of Jim Dorey and Ted Green ... Superb skater ... Earned All-America honors as a freshman at the University of North Dakota ... One of the brightest American prospects around today ... Works on his father's 1,500-acre farm in summer, helping with herds of beef and dairy cattle
