He ranks third in all-time NHL points with 1,887 and second in playoff points with 295, earning him the nickname "The Moose" for his strength and determination.

IMPORTANT NOTES ON GRADING AND BACKGROUND ON HHA:
The Hockey History Archive (HHA) is a hockey history organization that is part of HHA Grading and Reclamation (BC Business Registry 725858229bc001) which began as a group of hockey historians and collectors who initially were focused on finding and releasing to the public video of old hockey games 20 to 70 years old. Recently HHA began focussing on providing a new type of hockey card grading with collectors in mind rather than investors. HHA was founded by RD Smith who has a degree in history from Simon Fraser University and who worked for years with historic photos for museums which included assessing, cleaning, and preparing historic photos for public viewing while taking needed steps crucial to preservation. Smith in conjunction with the HHA decided to turn this expertise towards the task of grading and "reclaiming" cards.
