Team Toe blake is happy to select, as our
3rd Defenseman, Eric Desjardins
Éric Desjardins (born June 14, 1969, in
Rouyn,
Quebec) is a retired Canadian professional
ice hockey player. He was a
defenceman for the
Montreal Canadiens and
Philadelphia Flyers for 17
National Hockey League (NHL) seasons, winning the
Stanley Cup with Montreal in 1993 and headlining the Flyers defense for over a decade. He currently works for the Flyers as a player development coach.
Another brutal trade for the Canadiens in the 90's (one of many). I'll never forget his hat trick in the 93 playoffs against LA, the third goal an OT winner. Management got rid of two of their 3 best players in one shot by trading Eric along with Leclair for Recchi. Ugh.
