Hes utterly worthless only when the games matter. When the team is eliminated from the playoff, suddenly he's a star player. Definitely hurts the team's lotto odds.my most indelible sutter memory, beyond his bullying of prospects and young players (see the “big balls” comment upthread), is his complete inability to clear the zone. just an utterly worthless player who much of his last 2-3 years here was a liability, even as a fourth line plug.
First player in NHL history to have a retroactive NTC applied, iirc. Also at the time of his first contract with the Nucks the first forward ever to sign over $4m per without ever scoring over 40pts in any prior season.
Those are my only memories of him.
Still, wish him all the best on a comeback attempt. I might not like him as a player, but I don't blame him for taking the money offered to him by an idiot GM.
