Peter Maher was the GOAT, but never took any credit for himself or demanded the spotlight.

It's a fine line. To succeed in that business you have to have some confidence, otherwise your own insecurities will eat you up. But it can tip over to being ego-centric very easily.
Exactly. Duhatschek, Whalen, Maher, Johnson, Leslie, and even Hrudey.

Not necessarily, a contrast to Troutman's point, with the 'but' Jiri, as I think we can all agree, one of Maclean's most detrimental characteristics is his often found, lack of humility.
