You might think whatever you want of him, you might call him an overrated goon, whatever, but when it comes to his work ethic and determination, he is a true role model. A guy with absolutely zero talent (and I don't think I am exaggerating) becoming one of the best Ds of the past few years, the best D of certain recent years, the captain of a SC winning team and... well, many other achievements, including (and don't argue with me, this is a given) a future Hall of Famer. No talent, just working harder than anyone else. Despite his size, not thanks to his size. While being a total class act off the ice.
