Excerpts from Zander Hollander's Guide to Pro Hockey, 1979-80 (by Reyn Davis)

Found his niche on a line with the super kid Wayne Gretzky and Blair McDonald ... Plays a hustling style that coaches love ... Very fast and brazen enough to bump with anyone ... Acts as a distraction to take attention away from Gretzky ... Led the Oilers in power play goals with 12 last season ... Never played a game of junior hockey ... A graduate of little-known Centennial college ... A good dresser, wears a variety of hats.
