Jeff Gorton

He passed through waivers one time.

And then he became this Hall of Fame player.

He does have that unique thing where he can stand in front of our team and say, I've done everything all of you have done.

I'm not asking anybody to do anything that I didn't do.

And I think he has that unique bond that maybe not a lot of people could have.

Um...

Yes.

You know, I think we had to when the spot we were in, like when we signed him, we were, if you remember, we had gone on the run after, but we were out of the playoffs and not necessarily trending in the right direction.

And when we started talking to him in December, so we were, we were pretty far out.

And then we went on the run to make the playoffs, but no, I mean, he's, he's pretty unique guy.

Like he doesn't, he doesn't get a lot of accolades, but he has a guy that can go up and down your lineup.

You know, he,

He's, he can skate, you know, he wins face-offs.

He's a great penalty killer.

Uh, he's, you know, another guy that's quiet in the room, just goes about his business, um, real professional guy.

So he's, uh, you know, Marty's playing them up right now on the second line and, and, uh, he's having a lot of success.

So, um,

Those guys are hard to find, I think, that can go up and down your lineup, that can do a little bit of everything, that can play wing, play center, win draws.

You know, we're seeing it with him and Deneau right now and Susie, right?

They're winning a lot of draws.
