Scouting Report
Has survived cancer to return to the NHL as the same type of player he has been throughout his career: a huge (6'6") forward who can play a shutdown role, win key face-offs and provide leadership. Has never been a major offensive force, and his productivity has waned as he has moved into his late 30s.
Long Range Potential: Huge checker and versatile role player.
