What a hustler. Limited talent but made up for it in heart.

RIP Jimmy.

A plumber's plumber, a guy who would fight for every inch and be so dependable defensively. He would not be outworked. RIP.

Roberts was one of my favorites as a kid. Speedy, small defensive winger. I still consider Roberts-Jarvis-Gainey line as best 4th line ever in NHL
