He had his moments - 1975 vs Habs and 1981 Canada Cup final being the best. But, he was much like Dryden in many ways - he always played for dominant teams (both nationally and internationally), so all he had to do was be good enough. Much like Luongo at these Olympics - he wasn't great, but he was good enough.
