Scouting Report
Had an impeccable work ethic and never took a shift off. Was smooth and polished in all aspects of the game. Possessed oodles of creativity. Killed penalties well and could play the point on power plays. Had a quick release. His hard-working style of play led him to wear down over the course of his long career, and also led to injuries. Was misunderstood in the leadership department because he was not a rah-rah type.
Long Range Potential: Excellent, savvy two-way winger.
