Off for a new adventure in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga I’d assume

But he'll always have those magical 35 games with McDavid to remember, and which got him enough cred to turn it into another 3 years in the league.

He was a decent bottom 6 winter for most of his tenure here. At a time when we were dying for production from the bottom of the line up, he was the one player down there who would give us an extra goal here n there

Part of his problem is he doesn't really do anything special.

Even his last year in Detroit at a first glance production looks pretty good for 20 games, but it's all PP. Not overly physical, doesn't play PK, and doesn't produce 5 on 5. Last time he produced at even strength was because he got gifted some time with great players.

One year away from the game the guy was pretty much just getting one last skate with the boys

That's why he's been a 4th liner though. He may not have scored much 5 on 5, he'd throw the odd hit, and not cause many headaches on the d-zone. Then when you needed someone to bump up to the PP or cover a few shifts in the top 6, he could do that. For what was predominantly a 1.5 - 2m players, that was ok.

Now he's just gotten older and is getting to the end of his career
