Scouting Report
To find him on the ice, opponents and fans had to look first in front of the offensive goal. He was a grade A pest who went to the dirty areas and got a lot of garbage goals from rebounds, tips and quick snap shots. The pounding he took wore him down over time. Was a streaky scorer and a constant irritant to opponents, although he occasionally took things a little too far. Led by example and was a true winner. Injuries did him in but not before he made his mark in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Pesky net-front presence, energy winger and proven winner.
