Scouting Report
The pint-sized (5'4") forward had quickness, hockey sense and playmaking ability, as well as the shiftiness to avoid a lot of hits--a skill that enabled him to play well into his 30s. Injuries were always a problem, but when healthy he provided plenty of energy, useful offensive skills and a surprising amount of grit for a player his size.
Long Range Potential: Diminutive but feisty depth winger.
