Scouting Report
He became the 10th U.S.-born NHL player to reach the 400-goal mark. Was a fine playmaker, especially earlier in his career when he played center, as well as a great finisher who knew how to play without the puck. Was one of the most effective shootout scorers in NHL history and a master of tipping shots from the point. He was not big, fast or physical--just effective. Despite a lack of size, he always took plenty of punishment in front of the net in order to score goals. Was one of the most consistent players of his generation.
Long Range Potential: Outstanding point producer and leader.
