Scouting Report
Liked to play a north-south game and was strong along the wall. Defensively responsible, he was appreciated among teammates and a good leader in the room. Had limited scoring ability in the National Hockey League. While he was always willing to stick up for teammates, his pugilistic skills were average (at best).
Long Range Potential: Depth energy winger and leader.
