Interesting and fair question. Hockey is much more of a team sport than a lot of others, so it's hard to see him as a choker. Really, is there any player in hockey whose legacy is a choker? I don't think so. I think it's more of the Caps somehow not being overall willing to play a more grind it out game when needed, but that's just me.
So no, I think he'll be remembered as a hard nosed Mike Bossy.
