He was a complete turd in the last few minutes of that game... including the shot and running into Vernon well after the whistle. The result was offsetting penalties which made Al MacInnis spend the remainder of regulation time in the box... taking away the experience of being on the bench/ice as the clock ran down and living it out with his teammates.
I've hated Claude Lemieux for this very reason ever since.
