He likely had better seasons statistically with Buffalo and Philly, but the guy made his name in Phoenix. The deal that sent him to Buffalo was easily one of the worst trades in NHL history.

It's funny how many people are noting how classy he was. Well, I'm sure off the ice he was, but he was a bit of a rat on the ice.

Surprisingly tough for a little guy. Last season he was about the only guy driving to the net and scoring ugly goals for the Avs.

Had more points with Philly than Buffalo, but I'll always remember how good he was with the post-lockout Slugs.

His 06-07 was nuts: 110 points in 97 regular and postseason games.

Also had a chance to see him and Claude Giroux half-ass it for Berlin during the last lockout.
