The thing about "The Thrill" was that it wasn't a term of affection. The guy put up tons of points for a losing cause, because he couldn't play without the puck, wasn't clutch, and played "defense" in name only.
He never went anywhere in the playoffs because he wasn't any use when it mattered. With Washington he was a healthy scratch in the finals.
One of those talented guys who you'll never win with.
I went with Nattress.
