Default The Most Interesting Resume In Hockey

I read this and thought it was interesting enough to worth sharing.

Quote:
When I printed Jarrod Skalde’s career stats they rolled out in two pages, with the ink drifting past the middle of the second sheet. It's an understatement to say the list contained a lot of numbers, a lot of teams and a lot of leagues.

Mike Sillinger owns the distinction of playing on the most NHL teams, touching 12. Four players have played for 10 teams, 14 players have suited up for nine, and you’ll find Skalde in the jumble of 40-or-so players who’ve dressed for eight.

While impressive, it’s not Skalde’s eight teams or his 115 games at hockey’s highest level that make him unique. He stands out thanks to the unparalleled breadth of his sweeping professional resume as a whole, which saw him play for 27 teams throughout six countries in eight leagues over 18 seasons for a total of 1,125 games.

Absolutely amazing. And of course, he played for the Flames in 95/96.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
