Why he might be annoying:

    He is a journeyman player.
    He is injury prone.
    He retired after the 1995-96 season and came back after missing the entire 1996-97 season.
    The Flames felt that his comeback was way too much of a risk, so they dealt him to the Hurricanes a few days after he announced his intentions (1997).
    He insisted the Panthers traded him back to the Leafs a few months after signing with the team.
    He was originally hesitant about accepting a trade to Pittsburgh.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He made a successful comeback after receiving neck surgery.
    He is a respected player in the locker room.
    He was a member of the Flames first Stanley Cup championship team.
    He played for three teams alongside childhood friend Joe Nieuwendyk.
    He isn't afraid to stand up for his teammates.
